What Is a Shoot House & CQB Training?
A shoot house is a dedicated training environment designed to simulate real-world interior spaces such as homes, offices, and other structures. It allows students to safely apply firearm skills in a dynamic setting that goes beyond a traditional shooting lane, introducing movement, angles, and decision-making.
Shoot house training is built around CQB (Close Quarters Battle) principles, which focus on safely operating in confined spaces where distances are short and situations can change quickly. CQB teaches students how to move, think, and maintain control when navigating rooms, hallways, and doorways.
Training commonly includes:
-
CQB fundamentals and close-distance engagement concepts
-
Entering and clearing rooms
-
Navigating hallways, doorways, and tight corners
-
Moving safely around obstacles and structural features
-
Maintaining firearm control and situational awareness
-
Identifying potential threats and making sound decisions under pressure
Shoot house and CQB training bridge the gap between static range shooting and real-world application, emphasizing safety, movement, and judgment in a structured, instructor-led environment.

Instructor-Led & Safety Focused
All shoot house use at Close Quarters Tactical is staff and instructor-led only. This means every run is supervised by trained staff who guide movement, positioning, and decision-making step by step.
Instructors help students understand how to approach doorways, corners, and rooms, and how to safely manage a firearm while moving in close spaces.
Training is conducted under strict safety protocols to ensure a professional and educational experience for every participant.
