SUMMARY:Close Quarters Handgun - Chuck Haggard
DESCRIPTION:Close Quarters Handgun\n\nby Chuck Haggard\n\nThis class covers
  material that I have taught over the past couple of decades to both polic
 e officers and concealed carry people\, and has been proven multiple times
  on the street in real world encounters.\n\nWe will explore the following 
 subjects\;\n\nThe use of a concealed carry handgun or police service pisto
 l in the MUC (managing unknown contacts) environment\, the criminal assaul
 t paradigm\, tactics\, techniques\, and issues with defensive use and depl
 oyment of handguns at contact/near contact and very close ranges\, along w
 ith the significant issues involved in using a handgun in a world where we
  are surrounded by "no shoots" and bystanders.\n\nConsiderations in drawin
 g a handgun at contact and near contact ranges\, entangled in-fight weapon
 s access issues\, and drawing/firing from non-standard positions\n\nEffici
 ent draw stroke. Close quarters shooting techniques. Grip\, trigger contro
 l\, recoil control\, Weapon retention and disarming/deflection. Striking w
 ith pistols\n\nWorking around bystanders or family members in close quarte
 rs\, and the Rule 4/“down-range” friendlies problem\,\n\nHandgun reten
 tion and disarming\, when to draw your handgun and when to go hands on in 
 a close quarters attack\, effectively using the pistol as an impact weapon
  in extremis\,\n\nWound ballistics\, ammunition selection and “Tactical 
 Anatomy”\,\n\nReloads and malfunction clearances\n\nStudent Equipment/re
 quirements:\n\nA reliable/serviceable handgun\; service-sized pistols 9mm/
 .40S&amp\;W/.45ACP\, etc. are preferred. However\, smaller concealed carry
  or back-up pistols may be used as a primary\, or brought to class as an e
 xtra pistol and their use discussed and worked on.\n\nA quality strong sid
 e or appendix carry outside or inside the waistband holster from which the
  shooter can safely draw and re-holster with one hand. A police\, military
  or security duty type belt rig would also be acceptable.\n\nSoft clip-on 
 or nylon type holsters\, or holsters that collapse and disallow re-holster
 ing with one hand\, or shoulder holsters\, are unsuitable and unsafe for t
 his type of training. This includes the popular Crossbreed type hybrid hol
 sters.\n\nPlease do not bring a Serpa holster unless you are required by a
 gency policy to carry one.\n\n350 rounds of ammunition is needed for this 
 class (if you like to shoot\, you might want to bring more\, but 350 will 
 get you by...)\n\nI can provide dummy ammunition in 9mm\, .40S&amp\;W and 
 .45ACP for use in some of the drills we will be conducting. If you are car
 rying a caliber different than one of these please bring at least six dumm
 y rounds in the correct caliber with you.\n\nEye and hearing protection\; 
 active type shooting muffs are highly suggested so that range commands can
  be clearly heard. Ball cap or other hat/cap with a bill.\n\nStudents will
  need to bring their own water and food/snacks for lunch.\n\nI will be pro
 viding dummy handguns for some of the training in this class. I have sever
 al Glock 17/22 sized dummy guns and other types of dummy handguns. However
 \, if a student has a dummy gun of their own that they use for training th
 en feel free to bring that to class.\n\nHere are a couple of good articles
