Designed to keep skills sharp over the winter months, Defensive Rifle Practices reinforce fundamentals and tactical skills learned in Defensive Rifle classes in short, fast-paced, low-cost sessions.

These winter Practices will run in place of Defensive Rifle Workshops until the spring.

Prerequisite: Students must have a valid Massachusetts LTC (resident or non-resident). These classes are for students who have training in defensive/tactical rifle shooting. Those who have at a minimum taken our Defensive Rifle 2.0 are welcome to sign up. Others will be considered, as long as they have taken coursework similar to Defensive Rifle 2.0 elsewhere (from a recognized academy/instructor).

Note that these courses are held outdoors and require physical activity in cold weather. Please be realistic about your abilities. If snow or ice is on the range, we may have to cancel/reschedule for safety. You will be notified as soon as possible per Paladin Group Training Class Policies.
