DESCRIPTION

Build confidence in close-quarters battle (CQB) environments with this immersive 3-hour low light airsoft course.  Designed for students who have already completed Level 1 and Level 2 of our CQB Academy and are looking for a challenge to their fundamental skills, this course introduces practical flashlight and weapon-handling techniques for navigating dark and confined environments such as corridors, parking garages, building interiors and outdoor structures.

You'll learn how to use handheld and weapon-mounted lights while moving and operating in close quarters.  The primary focus is on integrating a handheld flashlight with your everyday-carry pistol developing efficient light deployment, and learning how to manipulate your light and firearm at the same time. 

No night vision training is included in this course.  If you are interested in learning to use night vision optics, check out our Night Vision Demo course.  

MINIMUM ROUND COUNT – NONE- no shooting in this course.
