This one is coming up THIS SUNDAY!!!!!!!

REMINDER that this is coming up in just about 3 weeks !!!

Thanks! I'm not gonna lie, it was a bit of a struggle . I just kept praying that it would not lock up on me and that it would still let me put weight on it long enough to get through the match.

I sponsored and shot in the 2022 Georgia State IDPA Championship Oct 28-30 Dawsonville Georgia at Riverbend Gun Club. I competed in the Backup Gun Division with my 25 year old "box stock" Glock 26 with now very dim Trijicon Night sights. I shot the match on Friday the 28th and went back down there on Sunday to pick up my banner and a couple of awards. That's me in the black and gray jacket accepting my awards (1st Place Master BUG and 1st Place BUG Division) from match director Ed Moser. If you have Facebook you can see video of all the stages and a few pics here....https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100083096239602

This one is coming up in a little over a week.

We are moving this class to March 4-5 2023 !

This one is coming up at the end of the month!

This one is coming up THIS SUNDAY !!!!!!!!

This one is coming up THIS Saturday !!!!!

This one is coming up in just over a week! We all spend time in and around vehicles yet there are very few opportunities for people to train in and around vehicles. Take advantage of this opportunity so that if it happens for real, then that won’t be the first time you have to figure it out !

This one is coming up THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!

Date: Sunday Oct 2 Location: Windrock Shooting Range & Training Center 720 Windrock Road Oliver Springs, TN 37840 Time: 8:30AM to 4:30PM Eastern Time Most of us spend time in a vehicle every day whether it is our commute to work or school or just a trip to the store. And while we all have spent a lot of time driving a vehicle most people never get to practice fighting from a vehicle. This class teaches you to do just that. This class covers everything from dealing with seatbelts and passengers to weapons access, to using the vehicle for cover and fighting from inside the vehicle. YES in this class you will shoot from inside your own vehicle. Equipment Required : Modern defensive pistol and 200 rounds of ammo. A holster specifically for that pistol worn on the belt . At least two (2) magazines and carry gear, range safety gear (eye and ear protection) . Price : $235 Payments can be made by cash or check or Electronic payment by paypal or venmo (friends and family option) or by credit card (contact Randy by phone 423 827 9133 or by email at randy@harriscombative.com for CC payment). This will also be listed on Eventbrite if you prefer to sign up there but you can save the Eventbrite fees by paying me directly.

Harris Combative TN/GA/AL Training Group This one will be a little different than usual. This one is a study in running your revolver effectively and efficiently and then familiarization with various bolt action military rifles. Revolvers and bolt action military rifles are still legal in all 50 states and if you know how to run them they can still be quite effective. We will also shoot a "battlefield pickup drill" at the end. I plan to have a 1903 Springfield, 1917 Enfield , Enfield No1, Enfield No4, Mauser 98K, Mosin Nagant all there for students to familiarize themselves with and shoot at 100 to 200 yards. If you have a military bolt gun please bring it and at least 40 rounds for it. If you do not have a military bolt gun you can borrow one of mine in class just bring 40 rounds of ammo for it or I may be able to source that for you if you let me know in advance. See ammo listings below.

TN/GA/AL Training Group – “How Qualified Are You?” October 1 we will be at the "usual location" the Phillips/Edwards farm in Pisgah AL (actually it is Ider with a Pisgah mailing address) for a meeting of the TN/GA/AL training group. Everyone is welcome! No prerequisites and no prior experience required ! Subject: HOW QUALIFIED ARE YOU ? (Pistol and Rifle) Instructor: Randy Harris Randy’s Bio Location: Phillips /Edwards Farm 763 County Rd 332 Pisgah AL 35765 (about 35 min SW of Chattanooga) Date : Saturday October 1 Time: 9AM - 3:00PM CENTRAL Price: $80 – you can pay through Eventbrite or pay at class by cash or check or Electronic payment by paypal or venmo (friends and family option) or by credit card (contact Randy by phone 423 827 9133 or by email at randy@harriscombative.com for CC payment).

Revolvers are welcome if you want to party like it is 1899. A Rifle and 50 rounds of rifle ammo. As far as the courts are concerned if it isn’t documented it didn’t happen so this is an opportunity to get some official scores on paper in case you ever need them . Not only that but it will be a good day of shooting some somewhat challenging and well known courses of fire. We will be shooting some challenging warm up drills and then the Air Marshal , FBI pistol AND RIFLE qualification courses and many others. I will also keep records of these (if you are happy with your scores) for future reference and use . This will serve to get your shooting prowess on record by a third party in case it is ever needed in the future in some legal matter. This is also something your church might like to have for their records if you are a member of a church security team. This is an EXCELLENT chance to bring someone you know who might need a “reality check” on where their skills actually are. We all know people who are gun owners who keep threatening to get some training. The training days (especially the qualification days) are a great way to get them into that and show them what is possible with some directed practice and see where they REALLY are at their present skill level. And it is a good chance to get to meet people with the same interests that don’t think you are “crazy”. And just a final reminder EVERYONE is welcome ! The TN/GA/AL Training Group started as a way for alumni of classes taught by Randy Harris to get together and stay current on skills and get some coaching in a one day format at a discounted price from what a normal class would cost.

Harris Combative Strategies Low Light Rifle ! Date: Saturday October 29 Time: 5:30PM - 11pm Eastern Time Location: The Ridge Dayton TN.

Range Gear and requirements : Rifle with weapon mounted light. Hand held flashlight. Extra batteries. Pistol and holster designed to be worn on the belt. Two spare rifle mags. Range Safety gear (eye and ear protection) . Clothing appropriate for weather. Snacks and drinks. You are welcome to bring something to eat for dinner.

Approximately 25 pistol rounds. If you want to shoot more you are certainly welcome to bring more and shoot more but we will be focusing on shooting with accountability not mag dumps.

Harris Combative Strategies RED DOT PISTOL SKILLS Oliver Springs TN Sep 24 - 25 2022 Eventbrite Link for Tickets The Red Dot equipped pistol is becoming more common in the holsters of law enforcement, military and private citizens and this class is designed to quickly develop confidence and proficiency with the platform. Unlike iron sighted pistols Red Dot equipped pistols have a few quirks and idiosyncrasies that need to be accounted for and trained for. The most high tech weapon is worthless without solid skills to operate it to the full potential. This class will help you develop those skills. Some topics include: Grip, Draw, Finding the Dot Faster, Acceptable vs perfect sight picture, Target Focus vs Sight Focus, Trigger control, Tracking the dot in recoil, Target transitions, Shooting on the move, Malfunctions (both with pistol and the optic) , Alternative indexing methods and much more. Required Equipment: Reliable Red Dot Pistol and at least 3 magazines, carry gear, Eye and Ear Protection. We have a few loaners if you do not have a Red Dot pistol and want to attend the class. Ammo Count is 600 Rounds. For safety reasons holster must fit the belt you use and must not collapse when the gun is removed. Holster must cover trigger guard. Serpa Holsters are strongly discouraged unless that is your issued duty rig . A rain coat/wet weather gear is also a good idea in case of rain. Instructor: Randy Harris Instructor Bio Price: $400 Payments can be made through Eventbrite or by by cash or check or Electronic payment by paypal or venmo (friends and family option) or by credit card (contact Randy by phone 423 827 9133 or by email at randy@harriscombative.com for CC payment).
