Primary training goals include:

These courses complement handgun and CQB training while standing on their own as dedicated long-gun instruction.

Close Quarters Tactical (CQT) offers rifle, carbine, and shotgun training designed specifically for civilian long-gun proficiency. These courses focus on safe handling, accuracy, movement, and practical application rather than competition-style or purely static shooting.

​

Training is structured to help shooters understand how long guns are realistically used, from range fundamentals to dynamic environments, while maintaining strict safety standards.

​

Courses are conducted on our live-fire ranges and, where appropriate, integrated with movement-based and scenario-driven training opportunities.
