If you own an AR-15 rifle or carbine but have never had any form of formal training, I encourage you to attend one or both of the back-to-back Clinics we're hosting at The Beaver Valley Rifle & Pistol Club (Beaver Falls, PA) this weekend!
Some things we'll be covering in this half-day, $75 Clinic:
- field strip
- inspection
- cleaning & lubrication
- reassembly
- function check
- chamber dimension check & chamber reaming (if necessary)
- check and repair of proper staking on components
- checking proper torque values
- checking component compatibility (rifle components in carbines & vice versa)
- rough zero irons and optics
- hard zero irons and optics at 100 yards
- prone shooting on steel out to 200 yards
This will be followed by another half-day Carbine Clinic for additional trigger time and closer range work/manipulations.
Hope to see you!

Protective Carbine 2 shifts our focus from fundamental shooting skills development to home defense applications. This course builds confident armed citizens by mentally taking shooters off the range and instilling a shift in mindset: that you are at all times preparing yourself to prevail against a lethal threat. Weapon effects on human anatomy form the basis for Protective Carbine 2 targeting options and marksmanship standards. Mini-scenarios are introduced on a random basis to keep shooters in a problem-solving mode.
Techniques covered include advanced malfunction clearance, alternate ready positions, use of cover, aggressive movement, shooting while moving, weak side shooting and manipulations, use of cover, and transitions to sidearms (and the applicability of this technique). Low light shooting, low light weapon manipulations, and illumination techniques occur the evening of day one.
Throughout the course, situational awareness is constantly emphasized for weapons, gear, and environment. A lawyer (also a trained shooter) will discuss certain legalities of long guns and NFA weapons and home defense for Pennsylvania. This course deals with situations which constitute likely scenarios that a citizen may face - the middle of the statistical "bell-curve".
This Course is for experienced shooters and is also physically demanding - students need to be honest with themselves about their ability to perform.

Our Protective Carbine 2 course is approaching at the end of the month. Even if you have previous "tactical" carbine training, you've probably never been through a course that is entirely geared towards civilian applications.
I also suspect you've never been through a course that holds you to the standards that we do. While everything is a balance of speed and accuracy - we expect hits, every time. You are truly accountable for every round you fire!
Our emphasis is on marksmanship and decision-making, not on gear. We run military, law enforcement, and competition techniques through our filter to give you everything that you need and nothing you don't.

Advanced Kalashnikov Clinic on the menu!

Seven slots remaining for the Oct. 19th Advanced Kalashnikov Clinic. Don't miss out!

If you own a Kalashnikov (a lot of you do) and you've never done anything with it other than blast at dirt clumps on the berm, this coming Sunday is a half day of dedicated instruction on the platform. $75 and 300 rounds will get you there. You don't need any fancy gear as long as you have a sling and a few extra magazines.

Protective Carbine 2 is this coming weekend. This is THE course to take if you want to learn and practice civilian defensive applications of the carbine weapon system.
If you want in, there's still room. If you had planned on being there, ping me to let me know you're coming and when you're rolling into town.
