3.5-4hrs of instruction
In this course, you will learn how to set up Night Vision Goggles, your helmet, Infrared Lasers, and how to integrate them into your shooting capabilities. Then we will immediately move into functional combat shooting techniques/drills and will spend the night improving these skills. Experiences from combat will be used to shape and induce stress to push your limits and take your skills to the next level. This is not a low light shooting course, this is a no light Night Vision shooting course so we will not be doing any white light shooting.
