  • Combat Shotgun I
    If there ever was a point and shoot weapon, it is the shotgun. From the trench guns of WW I, all the way up to today’s application of the shotgun in law enforcement, the military, and home defense. No other firearm out there commands the respect a 12-guage shotgun does, when you rack that slide.
    In this one-day course Mike Rayburn will take his knowledge of point shooting, and apply it to the shotgun. When you’re in combat, whether it’s with a handgun, rifle, or shotgun, your body will instinctively react to the stress when your fight or flight response kicks in. This course will teach you to work with those natural reactions, while applying the shotgun as an effective tool.

    Some of the topics covered:
    Dispelling The Recoil Myth
    Proper Mounting & Stance
    Combat Loading
    Movement
    Rapid Firing
    Ready Positions
    Under arm Shooting
    Hip Shooting
    Low Light

  • Combat Shotgun Instructor Course
    The most versatile weapon in the law enforcement arsenal has been, and will always continue to be, the shotgun. Even though it is the most versatile weapon we have, most officers still shy away from using it. Here’s the thing; if you’re going to a gun call, bring a real gun – bring a shotgun. If you have to clear a building that may possibly contain an armed individual, bring a real gun – bring a shotgun. Nothing commands more respect than the racking of the slide on a 12-gauge shotgun.

    One other fact about the shotgun that goes all the way back to it’s origins is, that it’s a point and shoot weapon. Going back to the old blunder busters, the coach gun, to the trench guns of WW I, all the way up to today’s law enforcement and military applications. Sure, its been improved upon over the years, but it’s still a point and shoot weapon.

    In this course Mike Rayburn takes his knowledge of point shooting and applies it to the shotgun. When you’re in combat, whether it’s with a handgun, shotgun or rifle, your body will instinctively react to the stress when you’re fight or flight response kicks in. It doesn’t make any sense to try and work around that natural reaction. Instead, embrace it, work with it, and more importantly – train with it. That’s what this course is all about – to train like you fight!
    Some of the topics covered are; dispelling the myth of the recoil, rapid firing, the various ready positions, snap shooting, movement, multiple assailants, the shotgun as a surgical shooting tool, and transitioning to the handgun are just a few of the topics covered.

If you’ve already taken a patrol rifle instructor course and are looking to add some new skills and tactics to your training, then this is the course for you. This two-day course picks up where other patrol rifle instructor courses have left off. It looks at the realities of the street, and how the patrol rifle is deployed under those conditions. That 300-yard shot is nice to make on the range, but in actual street confrontations that distance is rarely seen.

In most cases the rifle is used as a close quarters weapon. Usually within a building, most often a residential building, or at a traffic stop where the distance is no more than one or two car lengths in front of the officer, or across a roadway. In a close quarters fight there is no need, sometimes no room, and most often no time, to obtain some type of “traditional” sight picture with your weapon. Under these conditions you’ll be forced to place a quick, accurate shot into your opponent, without the use of sights. This course will teach you exactly how to do that, but more importantly it will teach you how to instruct others to perform these skills.

 

Handgun Tactics for the Waterborne Officer
Point Shooting vs. Aimed Shooting
Anatomy of an Armed Encounter
Instinctive Tactics
Shooting on the Move
Theory vs. Reality
One-Handed Shooting Skills                                                          
Close Quarter Tactics                                                                  Shooting from a Boat                                                                     Moving Targets                                                                      Waterborne Shooting Tactics                                                       Moving/Unstable Platforms

These are just some of the topics covered in this two-day firearms training course.

   These are just some of the topics covered in this two-day firearms training class. This course is designed to give the boat patrol officer the shooting skills needed to safely, and effectively, shoot from one unstable platform to another, as in shooting from one boat to another. Students will learn the benefits of point shooting over sighted fire, and why target shootings skills will not save your life during a confrontation on the open water.

   Large ships are somewhat stable, especially in calm waters, but most of us patrol from smaller craft that bob and pitch on the water. This class is designed to give the boat patrol officer the skills needed to combat that bobbing and pitching motion, to effectively place a shot into their adversary while on the water.

   Day one will be spent on the range learning the tactics, and day two will be spent applying those newfound tactics and skills, while shooting from a boat on the water. If permitted, live fire will be used on the open waters of the ocean, while Airsoft, or SIMS, will be used for other bodies of water.      

   This is a two-day class that will be taught by Mike Rayburn.
