Course Description

Why transition from a rifle to a pistol or from a pistol to a rifle? Why transition from your strong side to your support side?

The ability to smoothly (and safely) transition between your rifle and pistol or from your strong side to your support side provides you with options. Whether the threat is close in or at distance, or you have a stoppage or better use of cover, being able to efficiently transition between your weapons keeps you in the fight.
