Hey folks — I’ve got a private shoothouse set up on my property in Harriman, TN, and I’m curious if any fellow instructors or training groups out there would be interested in using it. It’s a live-action structure designed for force-on-force, room clearing, low light, movement-based drills, etc. Right now it’s set up for UTM/Sim/airsoft — no live fire — and I’m working on adding an elevated observation deck for better overwatch and instruction. If you're a legit trainer looking for a space to run your own class, host a workshop, or just do some serious practice with your team, shoot me a message and let’s talk. Open to collaborations, shared use, or even co-hosting events if it’s the right fit. Just testing the waters here to see who’s interested. Let me know!

Most shooters — even professionals — never get the chance to engage a fully mobile, 360° reactive target. This is that chance. Presented by LFX Firearms, this advanced pistol class features the Northern Lights TRACS robot, a remote-controlled moving target platform that adds unpredictable movement, speed, and pressure to every drill. Shooters will be pushed to make fast, accurate decisions in a dynamic environment where standing still isn’t an option. This course is built for experienced shooters ready to move beyond static line work and pressure-test their skills under stress. Class Details: Date: August 2nd Time: 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM Location: Windrock Shooting Range Round Count: 250 Cost: $220 Instructor: Tim Carroll Required Gear: Quality holster (IWB or OWB) Gun belt 2 spare magazines Eye & ear protection Water, snacks Chair (optional but recommended) You’ll train through: 360° moving target engagement Shoot vs. no-shoot decision-making Use of cover & concealment Communication under stress (solo & pairs) Vital zone targeting & rapid threat stoppage Register Now → https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=26709784 Presented by LFX Firearms Training www.lfxtraining.com

***EDIT: Class is for 16 and there are only 8 spots left*** Small Unit CQB Workup - Oct 23-27 Orion Training Group Jared Arceneaux and Jason Ransome $800 Click here to sign up ***This will be at LFX Firearms Training in Harriman, TN. I'm the owner but I've been a student of OTG for a while and invited them to come to my facility. This is fantastic opportunity to take a great course. These guys have never been to TN so it's rare to have them so close.*** Day 0 and 1: October 23 and 24 Live Fire CQB Marksmanship DAY 0 is a HALF DAY starting at 1300 local time and ending at 1700 local time. DAY 1 is a FULL DAY starting at 0800 local time and ending at 1700 local time. Course Focus: applicable weapons handling for a CQB environment, as well as accuracy while moving as it applies to CQB. This will be in a flat range environment and is NOT a "live fire CQB" course. Day 0 will function like a pistol/rifle clinic, allowing students of lower skill or experience level to catch up to others, and giving more experienced students a refresher on the basics with both platforms, as well as movement, reloads, malfunctions, panning doors, center checking, and dynamic entry with DRY REPS to familiarize with the concepts for Day 1. Day 1 will be focused on shooting during the movements associated with entry, such as threshold assessments and dynamic entries, lateral movements like running the rabbit, and more. At the end of this course, students will be able to accurately and rapidly engage targets with multiple rounds at CQB distances with rifle and pistol. Day 2-4: October 25- 27 Small Unit CQB (Force on Paper) DAY 2-4 ARE FULL DAYS 0800-1700 Course Focus: principles based movement governing the entry and domination of residential sized structures by 4 and 5 man elements.

Have you seen any of what's supposed to be in the criteria? I was curious about that. -

Hey all, I'm trying to find some video footage of someone from our side who is a good representative for a video I'm trying to put together. Ideally it would be at the Capitol against the special session that Lee was trying to push last summer. Any help would be appreciated.

I'd never seen anyone try to demonstrate using a firearm for self defense against a dog so I thought about what it would take. Luckily, I got in touch with a group that trains working dogs for military/police and they let me come out to get attacked. This was all new to me and I wanted the stress inoculation of experiencing what it was like for a dog to be latched on to my arm and to try and deploy a firearm. Anyway, I hope someone learns something. YouTube video here.

Concealed only permit , reciprocity
timcar86 replied to SingleStack's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
We are in constant contact with the TN handgun department so that our site stays up to date with reciprocity. Currently, SC recognizes the Concealed Carry permit. https://www.tennessee-carry.com/reciprocity-with-other-states -
We offer the course online for free at Tennessee-Carry. We thought anyone who wanted to should be able to see the course but we offer the chance to purchase the certificate at the end if the user chooses.

I was wondering if there are any resources or classes available on how to protect others while shooting. I have no issue protecting myself, moving and shooting, using cover, etc. I have not had any training on what to do with another person that I will not leave on their own like my 6 year old daughter. I'd like to figure out how to shield her while shooting and be able to move her in the direction I want while being able to keep my eyes on the threat.
