This course is designed to introduce the dynamics of fighting with a gun in a low to no light situation. Most predators seem to use darkness to attack their prey. They view darkness as a cover, asset, and weapon against those who they would turn into a victim. This is why most of violent encounters happen in the dark. It is our goal to give you the skills to face whatever situation or threat that may present itself. The defense minded individual should know that the odds that they might have to defend themselves or their loved ones in a low or no light situation are extremely high.To overcome threats of a home invasion, robberies, or assaults at night you need to have the right mindset and skills. The class outlines the proper use of flashlights, implantation of a handgun with a flashlight, or a weapon mounted light, realities of a fight, target recognition, mechanical manipulation of your firearm and gear in a low light or not light situation. We will also discuss the physiology of how a violet encounter will affect your vision and hearing so you are aware of these affects and rely on your training to overcome them.
