  • SUSC 2025 Registration $300

    MAY 2-4

    SUSC is a three-day challenge aimed at testing the current readiness level of small groups in various aspects of marshal skill. SUSC is often referred to as "The Laboratory" by cadre as it is a culminating event that lets the teams test their standard operating procedures and ideas against force-on-force opposition with real-time feedback. This is your opportunity to test what you have been training-does it work, or do you need to go back to the drawing board?

    Day One:

    Set up camp, Meet the other teams, admin and cadre Function check equipment and make adjustments as needed Break bread and network

    Lanes:

    Cadre and subject matter experts with real-world experience will run "lanes" covering various topics from small unit tactics and movement, Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC), communications and CQB. If these topics are new to you this allows you to get some exposure to them and ask questions before the scenario-based training begins.

    Day Two & Three

    Teams will be tasked to complete objectives that are designed to test them in different ways. Historically, a few of the objectives have included high value target recovery, reconnaissance, TCCC, raids, SERE and CBRN scenarios. There will be opportunities to eat, rest and maintain equipment, however the op tempo will be high, and teams will need to be on standby for tasking for the duration of the event. Utilizing airsoft for the FoF scenarios, the OPFOR will test your shoot, move and communication skills as a team.

    After Action Reviews (AAR):

    Teams will get AAR's from the OpFor and cadre at the conclusion of their scenarios as well as a culminating AAR at the end of day three. These feedback opportunities have proven to be some of the most valuable information that the teams from the whole exercise.

  • Defensive Performance Handgun

    MAY 17-18TH

    This class is founded in the realization that, while many classes offer defensive-focused or performance-focused pistol curriculum, very few combine the concepts of defensive and performance shooting in a way that is digestible to the normal concealed carry civilian.

    To that end, I developed this curriculum to clarify why high-level mechanical shooting skills are not only the foundation of competency but a minimum standard prerequisite for the responsible citizen who chooses to carry a gun. The bad guys do this for a living too, we should never assume every criminal or perpetrator isn’t as skilled as we are. Your life, or the lives of those you love, may depend on it.

    We will cover the foundations of the shooting process including grip, sights, trigger control, stance, and structure. The class will focus on expanding your competency and confidence in your skill set and refining your equipment. We will discuss the legal, mental, and philosophical backing for concealed carry as well as the psychological mechanisms which better prepare us for potentially lethal defensive engagements. My goal is to prepare your mechanical skill set and enhance your mental process, measured against the situations that you may encounter as a civilian in a defensive role.

     

    This class is not a “beginner” class, but there is a wide range of skill levels that would benefit from it. If you can safely carry, manage your muzzle, draw and reholster, or shoot at a C-class USPSA level you are ready for this class.

    This class is focused on concealed carry, as such you will need to bring the gun and equipment you intend to carry. Please do not show up to class with a battle belt/duty rig, even if you work in that equipment. Please use a quality concealed carry holster in the appendix or hip carry positions. Also, please do not bring a micro-compact pistol that holds less than 10 rounds as you will struggle to keep up with the round count of the drills given your smaller magazine capacity.
