    June 22-23, 2013
    HRO - CQB: FIGHTING IN STRUCTURES
    Fort Branch, Indiana
    Instructor: Randy Harris / Mike Swisher

    Price: $450.00

    CQB - FIGHTING IN STRUCTURES is a course that focuses on the tactics a single shooter, or a small team of two shooters, would use to operate inside of a building. Students attending this course will learn time-proven and results-based strategies for negotiating through any possible architectural obstacle found in a building using simple tactical logic, and to handle any high risk situation they might face from setting up a hasty ambush for home invaders, to searching/clearing operations, to direct action attacks against active shooters or home invaders. Moreover, all of the material is easy to learn and requires minimal sustainment as it draws upon existing skill sets learned in other Suarez International training courses. As well, facility allowing, students will operate in varying light levels adding the tactical use of artificial lighting to their skill sets. This course is not about leaving a mountain of spent brass on the range, it is about learning to think tactically and solve problems like an operator. Open to all private citizens.

    Some Of The Topics Covered:


    • Tactical Concepts and Analysis
    • Identification of threats and danger areas
    • Negotiating common architectural obstacles
    • Entry, establishing security and dominating
    • Operating in two man and three man cells
    • Covert communications
    • Low light operations and the use of technological assets
    • Coordinating team fire
    Because of the nature of the training, the class will be strictly limited to 12 participants.

    This looks interesting. Can I assume from the AirSoft equipment requirement there is an FoF element to this class?

    Jackson, it can depend on the venue. When we filmed the Dvd for this class in AZ, we just used blue guns. If you have a structure that supports airsoft, (not a lot of stuff to break), we can do some of the exercises with the airsoft. This is very much a tactics class, not a shooting class.

    Forgot to add, having your own airsoft would not be a complete requirement as we would have extra, and you wouldn't have everyone just running around shooting each other willy nilly.

    I had forgotten about this. I committed to help with the Women's Shooting day (posted about in the women's forum), which is the 23rd. You should do this again next year. This is the kind of stuff I like to see.

    Just a reminder...this one is about a month away....

    This class is not just your typical "Burglar hunt in a shoot house". It is a thorough exposure to different contexts of CQB (search and find/ hunt and kill/ ambush/ escape the structure) and allows you to see what works not against cardboard and paper targets (ANYTHING works against cardboard) but against real live opponents. You can only learn so much using real guns against FAKE targets. You get so much more of the big picture using fake guns against REAL targets.

    So come on out and join us and increase your skill sets and survivability in the CQB domain.

    For those coming or those still on the fence, here are a few of the things we will be covering.

    What is your Mission?

    *Setting up an Ambush
    *Search and Clear
    *Hunt and Kill
    *Escape and Evade (Traverse Through)

    To know how to proceed you need to define your mission using one of those four
    definitions. There are times and places for all.

    The Corner

    Slice the pie? Not quite. There is a way to do this right.
    Does it matter if it is a Right or Left sided corner?

    Doorways

    Stairways

    Fun, fun.

    Low Light

    Team Work

    and so much more.
