Defensive Rifle 101 (AR15/AK)
This is where rifle ownership turns into rifle capability. The Defensive Rifle 101 (AR / AK) course is our foundational rifle fighting class—built for responsible citizens who understand that a rifle is not just a range toy, but a defensive tool meant to protect life when everything goes wrong. This course moves far beyond static bench shooting or slow fire on paper. You’ll learn how to fight with your rifle—manage recoil, solve problems under pressure, move with purpose, and engage threats decisively. Whether you run an AR-15 or an AK, this class builds the skills and mindset required to use your rifle effectively in real-world defensive situations.
