The 2022 Handgun Master Program is open!
Training announcement.
With the success and popularity of the 2021 Handgun Master Program, it is time to make the formal announcement for the 2022 HMP!!!!
The 2022 Handgun Master Training Group Program.
What is this program?
The Handgun Master Program is one that will develop you, the participant, into a professional, efficient, safe, and highly competent concealed carrier by a continual path of instruction that is specifically designed to advance and solidify your skillset to a near intuitive level.
Instruction will be given primarily by David S Jenkins, Matthew Underwood, and guest instructors depending on topic and need.
The details:
The attendees of the Handgun Master Program will be those who have been hand selected to join. Positions will be limited to a specific amount. This group will meet once a month for training and will continue to train and develop as a team as well as individual progression. Unless a major event or weather prevents the group from meeting, it is a guaranteed training day.
Required skill-set to enter:
This is an intermediate to advanced level of training. You must be able to safely perform the following:
Draw and present your handgun
Operate your handgun with little effort (loading, unloading, etc)
Reload
Clear malfunctions
Be familiar with defensive course safety rules.
Training prerequisites: (need actual documentation or confirmation)
Basic handgun fundamental skill training
Concealed carry format course experience.
RPD, LLC/LPTG experience is best
Benefits:
You, the participant, will train alongside other like minded individuals as a team to develop into highly experienced and proficient shooters. The camaraderie and learning possible in this setting will be unmatched in other courses. The group dynamics will allow for support, feedback, and competitive advancement throughout the process.
Curriculum:
On the first session, there will be training on First Aid, CPR, and AED and Trauma Care. The second session will begin with a skill evaluation and baseline development session. The remaining sessions will build upon the previous. Topics will include (but may not be limited to): fundamental CCW skills, movement in conflict, one handed, tactical/two person skills, off position shooting, dynamic shooting, target threat assessment, stress/cognitive shooting, and more.
There will be assigned reading, research, and practice to do in between training sessions to reinforce the skill development.
By the end of the program, you will have gained a regimen of learning, skills, and have progressed through and will hone yourself and your skills, completed coursework, and have been measured against high end industry standards such as Rangemaster, Handgun Combatives, Thunder Ranch, Gunsite, Glock, Sig Academy, and more.
Participants will also have a chance to attempt the “Knight’s Quest” drill. This drill will be achievable but not easy. It is a “skill on demand” type drill and a focus/concentration drill. It will test you on a street level/concealed carry competence set of skills. Those who complete it will receive a special award symbolizing their achievement.
Materials needed:
- Defensive or CCW handgun- of a proper size for you
- A quality holster and magazine holder
- Extra magazines (we suggest 3 to 4 extra)
- A personal first aid kit (provided after Training Day 1)
- A maintenance kit for your handgun (cleaning/lube/etc)
- Approx. 2000-2500 rounds of ammunition throughout the series (I CAN SOURCE YOUR AMMO IF NEEDED)
- Eye and ear protection
- Note taking material
- Normal clothing and gear. No specialized equipment needed.
- Battlebelts and other gear will be allowed on occasion but since this training is geared towards CONCEALED CARRY, CCW holsters and gear are required.
Dates:
Starting on the third Saturday of February 2022, the sessions will continue until November 2022. Unless a major event or weather prevents the group from meeting, it is a guaranteed training day. Based on weather or need, we may double up dates if required.
Cost:
The cost for the program is $1950. This covers all the range fees, instructors (in house and guest) and other materials needed for the delivery of the program. If you commit and pay in full prior to September 30, there is a $200 discount. The cost can be divided up in two payments. A deposit of 50% can be paid to hold your seat in the program, and the final payment must be completed by the deadline. (As this is a specialized program, no discounts, credits, or other offers can be honored)
Final Commitment deadline:
November 30, 2021. You must make your full payment by then.
THIS IS NOT AN OPEN ENROLLMENT PROGRAM. Not everyone will be accepted. You MUST contact me and provide your training background to be considered. If you are a serious student and want to make that jump and become highly proficient, this is the program for you. This is not a new shooter's course format. You must have already successfully completed some coursework in defensive handgun training.
Don't pass this chance up by waiting!
