Advanced Combat Rifle 1

This course builds on FCR (Fundamentals of Combat Rifle) and will push you to become your best and move you toward our high Operator standards. You must have prior basic rifle training to attend this training and we recommended you take FCR prior to enrollment. ACR1 will help you develop the physical and mental abilities needed to drive your rifle in combat situations. You will learn tactics/skills that not only work on the flat range but translate perfectly into compressed BC/CQB environments. You will gain a deeper understanding and increase your performance in combat rifle manipulation, body position, shooting positions, economy of motion, target identification, shooting on the move and much more. Develop the cutting edge you need to survive high-risk encounters with a rifle through SIT (Stress Inoculation Training) and gain a better understanding of the human stress response. This course can be customized to meet the specific needs of your unit, group or agency.
