The shooting focus on the application of fundamentals of marksmanship with drills which require shooting in and around cover and shooting on the move from dominant and support side (Ambidextrous gunfighter).<\/p>\n<p>The Urban Gunfighter Course is an Advanced Pistol and Carbine Class focusing on the ever-changing contingencies of a gunfight. The drills, run in both daylight or nighttime involves stationary and non-stationary shooting and shooting from cover and vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>The Close Quarters Battle Course is a Basic to Intermediate course focusing on the fundamentals of CQB, Speed, Surprise, and Violence of Action. The course focuses on building blocks of CQB: the actions of a 4-5-man Assault cell and how they clear multiple rooms.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"lead-faucet-tactical-accelerated-rifle-pistol-course-everything-is-a-rehearsal-for-something\" title=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-93192\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0221.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I got to attend a three day LFT Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course sponsored by a local SWAT team. The class was taught by Dan Brokos. As a Green Beret myself, I knew what was coming and I was not disappointed. It was high volume training, fast-paced, challenging and educational. There were drills that had my heart rate up and tested my aerobic capacity.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key tenants reinforced over and over \u201cWe don&#8217;t live in a CQB world; you have to shoot out to 200 on demand, know your zeros and train at distance too.\u201d Dan\u2019s experience has taught him that endless rounds of CQB 7 meter shooting doesn\u2019t prepare you for the real world where real bad guys move and use cover. As a sniper, Dan knows the enemy will seek to engage you from beyond your effective range.<\/p>\n<p>In an LFT handgun and rifle class, you have to shoot both guns with both hands. Brokos believes that you must be an ambidextrous gunfighter. Many people talk about this, LFT training demonstrates and reinforces these critical skills for conforming to cover and staying in the fight.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"lead-faucet-tactical-accelerated-rifle-pistol-course-everything-is-a-rehearsal-for-something\" title=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-93188\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0208.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The use of cover is vital. I have been through shooting classes where cover was not addressed. People who have been shot at love cover. Brokos says \u201cDon&#8217;t hide behind cover, brace into cover and fight from cover.\u201d If you aren\u2019t returning effective fire, you can\u2019t eliminate the threat. If you hide, they will maneuver on you and hit you. Fight back and get your hits.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you have to move or shoot in the open. Brokos spends time explaining the need for rapid multiple hits. He insists that you build every shooting position to hold up to a 10 round string because you never know when you may have to re-address a threat.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"lead-faucet-tactical-accelerated-rifle-pistol-course-everything-is-a-rehearsal-for-something\" title=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-93194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Lead Faucet Tactical Accelerated Rifle &amp; Pistol Course: Everything is a Rehearsal for Something\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_0223.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There is no standard response. You engage the threat, asses the threat, re-engage the threat if necessary. \u00a0Shooting two rounds and moving to the next target is a training scar which could be fatal.<\/p>\n<p>The three-day class was filled with shooting out to 200 yards, shooting from cover with both hands, long movements into and out of cover, shooting from every position and malfunction drills. There was no downtime, while we were reloading, Dan was talking and cramming in more training value.<\/p>\n<p>I shot almost 3000 rounds. I took a new optic, which failed, I broke a rifle and tried a new belt set up that didn\u2019t work when I ran more than 25 yards. The class was a great laboratory and a validation of all the extra gear I take to classes.<\/p>\n<p>What is the one constant to all of this? Lead Faucet Tactical brings you current and relevant tactical, shooting and CQB instruction. \u00a0If you are looking for strenuous training that will work you and your gear to failure, look no further.
