Focused more on range time and live fire than classroom
presentation. This course will begin with a short discussion on safety and eqipment and quickly get into
some draw and dry fire techniques before going live on the range.
This course layers on top of Basic Pistol Level 1 Instruction focusing on more dynamic drills to
effectively shoot, reload, use cover, movement, addressing multiple threats (up close and at different
short range distances) and room clearances. There are several drills to make the student more aware
and efficient in his or her capabilities with a pistol to have the advantage when it comes to self-defense.
This course is taught by Matthew Planer and Michael Wiley, both with Law Enforcement tactical
instruction background and extensive training skills. Matt instructs dozens of officers every year in
Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun and Dynamic Shooting, each with almost 20 years of experience in Law
Enforcement instruction. Mike has been a member of the Berks County SWAT team (BCERT) for a
decade as well as a firearms instructor for his home agency for eight years and is an adjunct professor in
criminal justice. Both Matt and Mike have the goal of putting the student first and maximizing their
abilities with firearms
