ACT: DEFENSIVE PISTOL 201 - 12SEP09 - Terre Haute, IN - Page 2

bwframe · 09-08-2009

Not to worry:
#1 - I can't make it to this class, I'll play catch up next year.
#2 - I may be a bit stubborn and slow to learn, but that is not a mistake I'll make again. To this day, any time I see a round laying on the ground, I get an immediate flashback. I see obijohn staring me down with a look that says "I will strangle you!"

Quite memorable!

I can't make it this time either but I'd hope kneepads are on the equipment list.

The best part was ObiJohn's look in his direction 'after the incident'...

not to get to far off topic: but any chance of there being a DP101 or DR101 again this year?

thanks,
clay

With schedules, ours and yours, perhaps the best thing to do is to do it as private instruction, there are several viable options.

Re: equipment . . .

Same gear as for DP101 with the following additions/recommendations:

raingear or poncho
I'd bring at least 500 rounds. How much will you shoot? Depends on you!
concealment garment (optional ... only if you want to use it; a shoot-me vest isn't a great idea UNLESS that's what you wear all the time anyway; conceal it the way you really conceal it if you choose to carry concealed)
To make ATM happy, you might want to bring some kneepads too. We have both kneeling and prone shooting on the agenda, so if kneepads will make you more comfortable doing that, bring 'em and wear 'em. PLEASE NOTE: if you can't or do not wish to kneel or assume a prone or supine position on the ground, we won't try to force you or coerce you into doing it. I just want you to know we'll be doing some of it, so if it's within your ability, you will be prepared.
A reliable .22LR pistol or at least some .22LR ammunition - some students may choose to do some of the drills with a .22 to save ammunition costs. Again, this is entirely optional. If you want to use your centerfire pistol all the time, that's great!

I attended this course. John, Joey and Aron did a GREAT Job!!. The instruction was very good, the stages and facilities were terrific. They are very knowledgable, patient and are very good at conveying the instruction while making it fun.

I can highly recommend ACT for training, and am looking forward to some additional classes and instruction.

I too attended the course. The instruction was professional and inclusive with drills that apply in a "real world" Even with all the moving, shooting and situational training the program was presented "SAFELY" with no yelling and screaming at those of us who made some mistakes. THANKS GUYS - I will be at you Low Light Class.
