What's Paladin 1?

So we are launching a Paladin series of classes. They are built around the protector and healer mentality and calling. Most classes on the modern market are really good at building fundamentals, teaching defensive tactics (at least in ours), and more. However, many are geared toward set drills and such that do an amazing job, but can become pretty static. We are launching this Paladin line for shooters who are not new to training and shooting. Intermediate- advanced for sure. They will be geared towards protection, self-defense, medical, and realistic tactics to build an overall more prepared and trained healer and protector. This will be a series from each of our core class series (rifle, pistol, long distance, CQB, tactical medicine, hand to hand, survival, etc.) and overhauled for the shooter who is ready to become more comprehensive in his/her training to truly become a more prepared and trained healer and protector. It will be unlike any other class we (or almost anyone) offer. Rather than just drills or tactics taught in our core classes, it will be fast paced multi-faceted. So for lets day handgun- you dive into the shoot house for CQB handgun, learn to work a vehicle with handgun, a CCW medical portion, shooting in crowded/occupied areas, realistic CCW scenarios, active shooter response, and more rather than the usual 10 man line drills or drills on steel. Most of these will be 2 days, however this one will be one.

Paladin 1 is our rifle portion. It will be for shooters who are familiar with rifles and rifle shooting/training. It will consist of how to better defend yourself, your family, and will dive into in-depth training including a medical block to start students down the healer/protector mindset and skill set. Hopefully unlike anything seen today.

This is done at the request of @Variable

WOW - I cannot wait for these classes. I think for most guys like me - this is a perfect combo. I am not trying to be a high speed ninja Delta sniper wannabe. I want to have a very high civilian level skill set with the firearms i carry and have access to, at the same time have practical real world skills for recognizing and treating injuries and protecting my family, whether it is in the home or at the movies for instance. This gets into mindset, situational awareness, that kind of thing. I hope people find this track a worthwhile one. Keeps the training fresh and opens new windows for 2019.

Yes sir. You are a pack member, so rental is free. You can choose a 5.56 rifle to keep ammo cost and recoil down. You can certainly buy ammo from us

Awhile back I heard you talking to @Variable about a build based off a Remington 700 that would be suitable for long distance classes. Which caliber variant where you referring to?

Yep, gotta start somewhere with the basics before doing the crazy stuff.

To be honest, the wilderness med is great for beginners. It touches on some
Tac Med topics, but also covers basic first aid, hypothermia, how to build an improvised litter, etc.

If you just want to stick to the combat related with Tac Med 1, I will be more than happy to put one of the books for you, they always sell out so I never mind adding those!

I'm trying to get the wife to attend with me. We had one hands-on class many, many years ago but it wasn't "right". They spent half the time showing slides of people blown up in war zones, and a quarter of the time teaching stuff we would never do (chest tubes and such). Probably appropriate for some, but not for generic civilians wanting to patch people up injured in an earthquake, car accident, etc.

DEFINITELY take survival med. Tac Med/TECC/TCCC does spend a lot of time on trauma. It's designed for the military, so it covers wounds you will see in combat. TECC is just the LEO/civilian version. We work active shooter wounds into Tac Med. Survival med is more of the thing you are looking for.
