About the Course
Many deadly force encounters occur under low-light conditions. Do you have the skills to win these fights? In these courses, we will demonstrate multiple flashlight holds and how to move/shoot while using the light. We integrate "FlashFight" system techniques into the drills to transition from a close-quarters non-lethal to a deadly-force option. Low Light Pistol 1 is a live-fire course while Low Light Pistol 2 is utilizes AirSoft weapons to learn how to navigate urban terrain. Classes can be taken in either order.
