November 17, 2012 COMBAT PISTOL MARKSMANSHIP Knoxville, Tennessee Instructor: Randy Harris Price $225 In this class you will learn how to fire an accurate shot with your carry handgun, in situations replicating what may be necessary to prevail in a proactive street gunfight.

Thank you Sir and yes, hopefully we will offer it again in the area. Hoping to see some TGOers in class!!!

Prag, if that class was in March of 2006 at a Judo dojo off of Alcoa Hwy then I was there.

This one is just around the corner..... This class does not come around every day....or even every year. With several public mass shootings taking place in the last few months this class is as timely as it is ever going to be. Don't miss out on the rare opportunity to get a class like this....especially THIS class with my guest lecturer who works in the security/counter terror world. Whether it is the active shooter angry about being fired from his job or jihadist terrorists, dealing with this problem is not the same as dealing with a criminal looking to take your wallet. This class covers many different facets of dealing with these specific threats. Don't miss this opportunity!

I carry a full size gun if at all possible. Just easier to fight with a full size gun than a small one. I mostly carry either Glock 17 or 34. I mostly carry a Glock 17 in a Dale Fricke Archangel AIWB . When I carry an RMR equipped G17 it is in the Fricke Seraphim holster , also AIWB. For several years (and still do occasionally) I rolled with a G34 in a Blade Tech Universal. The Universal is an open bottom design that is about the same length as a G26 and so there is just less holster bulk down inside your pants. The barrel/slide extend out the bottom of the holster and it is comfy even with a 34 (or even a 17L).

Looks like we are going to be offering the Combat Pistol Marksmanship class on Saturday Nov 17 in Knoxville! I will post an official class listing here and link to sign up as soon as it is active on the Suarez International site.

Oh, sorry..... wrong place to post. Just PM me the options . I definitely want to renew.

I hope this is right place to post this....it says not to PM on support issues. I just got the invoice for my vendor account that expires 9/21 .....

One week to go!

Looks like the 1 day Advanced Combat Pistol Marksmanship class and the 1 day Team Tactics Fundamentals classes are going to be discontinued in 2013. So if you want to get these before they are gone now would be the time to get them!

I'll look forward to seeing you in the future!

Starts at 9AM . It is CENTRAL time where the range is located. The range is 35 minutes from downtown Chattanooga.

This one is getting closer!

Terrorist/Active Shooter Interdiction Oct 27-28 Chattanooga Tn You wanted this class in the Southeast and here it is..... with a BONUS lecturer! Trey Hudson, who some of you know from his counter terrorism lectures at the Warriortalk Symposiums and the Warrior Skills camp will be a guest lecturer on topics of history of terrorism, personal security measures and counter terrorism! Notice the Saturday schedule runs a little longer than normal to fit in the added material. Trey currently works as a Security Specialist with a government agency and in 2009 he returned from an assignment as a Force Protection/Anti-terrorism Officer in Afghanistan. He has extensive specialized training and experience in the areas of special security of WMD, combating terrorism, intelligence analysis in anti-terrorism applications, all-source intelligence operations, force protection/anti-terrorism, OPSEC, protection of classified assets and threat/vulnerability assessments. This will be an awesome learning opportunity! October 27-28, 2012 TERRORIST/ACTIVE SHOOTER INTERDICTION Chattanooga, Tennessee Instructor: Randy Harris Price $450 This specialized class deals with solutions to the Active Shooter or the Armed Terrorist on a suicide mission. Originally designed as a class to deal solely with the armed terrorist, in answer to student's requests, we have expanded it to also include the active shooter situation as well. On the terrorism issue, government and local law enforcement are training for the inevitable wave of terror attacks. Historically the terrorists have not relied solely on explosives, and may just as likely utilize the tactic of an active shooter. Such situations have already occurred here in the USA as seen by the Beltway Snipers, and the shootings outside CIA headquarters several years ago. Similarly, we hear more and more daily about non-terrorist incidents like the Tacoma Mall Shooting where an individual decided to get noticed by killing innocent people in a large public place. Although the authorities may be prepared to respond to such events, history tells us that the first line of defense is the armed citizen. It is the man or woman who finds themselves suddenly and unexpectedly in such an event that will end the killing. Will you be ready? These events, whether begun by a terrorist, or a deranged criminal bent on killing innocents call for new tactics and a new mindset. In the Terrorism/Active Shooter Interdiction Course© you will learn extremely aggressive CQB Interdiction Techniques utilized successfully against terrorists by armed citizens overseas. You will study the possible role of the CCW Armed Citizen in stopping such an event in its tracks. You will learn to use whatever you have at your disposal (pistol, knives, impact weapons and even your bare hands) to deanimate and neutralize a terrorist, or active shooter and stop him from killing innocents. We will also be doing a module of instruction for familiarization with the AK-47 series of rifles and the SKS series of rifles. If you have one, bring it. This course uses live fire, and non-live fire force on force training along with other modalities to develop the necessary aggressive fighting skills and then test them in scenarios replicating actual events. Armed Citizens are the first line of defense and the true Homeland Security. In the Al Queda video tape (which all students will view as a part of the class) the jihadists are training to attack and kill Americans at home. They are ready. Are you?? DURATION:2 days TIME:9:00AM to 8:00PM (Sat) 9:00AM to 5:00PM (Sun) PREREQUISITES:Student must be in reasonable physical condition and have attended a Suarez International Intermediate pistol classAMMUNITION:Approximately 250 rounds (Minimum) YOU NEED TO BRING:Spare clothing appropriate to the weather, lunch/snacks and water (minimum of 1 gallon per person) for the entire day, baseball or other style hat, sun screen, bug repellent, allergy medication (if needed), chair (if you have a problem with sitting on the ground, note taking paper/pen/pencil and a boo boo kit (band aids, gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, antibiotic ointment and tape) REQUIREMENTS:Pistol, carry holster, at least two magazines, and the usual range safety gear (ear and eye protection). Bring an airsoft pistol with the necessary gear (pellets, facemask, etc - all of it is available atwww.onesourcetactical.com. NOTE: Bring an adequate supply of CO2 for the airsoft. An extra magazine is important in case there is a problem with the primary.

We are looking at offering the one day pistol class .......Combat Pistol Marksmanship. In this class you will learn how to fire accurate fight stopping shots with your carry handgun, in situations replicating what may be necessary to prevail in a proactive street gunfight. This course is perfect for the novice or new CCW licensee (although no licenses are necessary to attend). It is also good for the more experienced shooter who wants to tune up his skills. Requirements: Modern Defensive Pistol, Holster specifically made for that pistol and designed to be worn on the belt at the "strong side", 3 Magazines and One Magazine Pouch, A Belt of the same width as the belt loops for the holster and magazine pouches, Range Safety Gear (Eye protection and ear protection) Ammo: Approximately 150 rounds (Minimum) Price : $225 Date?????? Our options for a date are either Sunday Oct 14 , Saturday Nov 3, or Saturday Nov 17 Anyone have a preference for date?

OK , so who would be available for a 1 day pistol class on Oct 14?

I have Oct 6-7 open and Oct 14 before November. In November I have the 3rd, 17th and the 18th. Any of those workable? I'm hoping GottheGoods will pop in and let us know what works for him .

This one is getting closer.....This is the perfect opportunity to improve your shooting in Advanced Combat Pistol Marksmanship on Friday, explore using your firearm in an area we all spend time in with our Vehicle Gunfighting Fundamentals on Saturday , and on Sunday you'll work on operating and cooperating with others in Team Tactics Fundamentals. These are all 1 day stand alone classes. You can sign up for any and or all of them. There is a discount for signing up for more than 1 day. The 1 day price is $225. The multi day (2 or 3 days) is $200 per day.

TGO David, Mav and ChancesR, Thanks guys !!! I appreciate the kind words. I do my best to do good work and am honored that you guys would say so. Thank you.

Not exactly middle TN , but I do have a class coming up in 2 weeks in the Chattanooga area. It is our Defensive Pistol Skills class. More info can be found here in this thread........http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/46059-suarez-defensive-pistol-glock-armorer-chattanooga-area-aug-18-19/ The class has about 5 signed up so far so you'll get plenty of 1 on 1 coaching. I'm not joking when I say I'll help you to shoot better than you thought was possible.
