2-DAY LEO ONLY COURSE

November 7-8, 2020

Hosted By: Las Vegas Metro PD

DAY 1

COUNTER WEAPON, PISTOL ACCESS, PISTOL RETENTION

Start time 0730. Simulated Weapons – NO LIVE FIRE.

Winning an armed encounter is dependent on much more than proficiency with your pistol. In the close confines where the vast majority of these incidents occur, merely being armed isn’t enough. This course is based on worst case scenario, when an armed suspect suddenly attacks or when a suspect attempts to disarm you.

Participants will learn to foul a suspect’s drawstroke and thwart an armed attack using empty-handed skills, as well as to create an opportunity to draw their pistol and retain it against a suspect determined to disarm them. The curriculum is based on simple, gross motor-based techniques designed to work under duress. Simulated weapons are used exclusively.

DAY 2

CLOSE QUARTER SHOOTING

Start time 0730. Live fire - 500 Rounds required.

The vast majority of law enforcement shootings occur within double arm’s length, where traditional shooting skills may not suffice. This course is focused on developing the ability to fight with your pistol. Shooting from retention, shooting in-contact with the suspect and seamlessly integrating empty handed skills with you pistol are emphasized.

Included in this course are adaptive, live-fire applications of many of the concepts presented in the Counter Weapon, Pistol Access, and Pistol Retention course such as fouling the suspect’s drawstroke, pistol retention, and striking with the muzzle of an inoperable pistol. The course culminates with the participants engaging multiple targets in close quarters.
