How to Apply
Our Defensive Shotgun class gives good people a realistic way to protect their lives, their homes, and their families
with a readily available shotgun. We prefer simple, reliable, relatively short
and lightweight 12 Gauge or 20 Gauge shotguns for home defense. What we like
isn't expensive and isn't inclined to gadgetry. Their overwhelming effectiveness
comes not from mechanical complexity but from the shooters' training.
Almost any working 12 Gauge or 20 Gauge shotgun will do if you know what to do
and how to do
it. That's where we come in. We train you and we do it under realistic conditions. We'll lend you a shotgun if you want.
This class is complete in one day. We hold our Defensive
Shotgun classes in the greater Columbia, South Carolina, area
but you don't have to be a South Carolina resident to take
our Defensive Shotgun class or any of our other classes. We welcome residents of every state.

Class Description
 Defensive
Shotgun starts with a review of the rules for shotgun
safety: as always safety is our foremost concern. We explain
special safety considerations for storing and using shotguns.
Then we examine some common myths that can get you killed or
arrested.
 A
well chosen shotgun in competent hands is the ideal defensive weapon
for a person who can think and is willing to do so. The shotgun
is
not a magic wand nor an instrument for producing magical
sounds. A shotgun can save lives when its user understands how
the shotgun works and can use it effectively. Real home invaders
are not frightened away by the sound of a shotgun being loaded
or the wife of a politician blasting into the around her well-protected residence.
But like others they are absolutely terrified by a capable defensive shotgun user of any age,
any race or color, and
either sex employing this remarkably flexible weapon to good
effect.
 Our students include
ordinary women, the elderly of both genders, and the handicapped
as well as men in the prime of life and of various capabilties.
A defensive shotgun in the hands of a well trained person is an
equalizer. We help you understand and use essential considerations such as:
- how to choose your shotgun for your own defensive purposes: what
works, what doesn't, and what can get you into trouble;
- how to choose
the right shotgun ammunition for your situation;
- how to hold your shotgun to control its actual recoil
and reduce its perceived recoil;
- how to pattern your shotgun at key defensive distances;
- how to load and reload your defensive shotgun with the
right ammunition for the threat and the distance;
- how to run your defensive shotgun, handle stoppages and
common malfunctions;
- how to hit static targets and moving targets with a
defensive shotgun;
- how to work with a potential hostage situation in your
home: what you can do if a home invader grabs a loved one as
a hostage;
- how to use cover and concealment with your defensive
shotgun;
- how to remain a responsible ciitizen within the law—the
judicious use of deadly force
 In our classroom we teach you what can save
your life, your family, and your home in the
real world.
In our well-equipped shooting bay we teach you how to do
what you need to do. We help you to apply
those techniques and address your specific
needs.
As always we take you as you are—as a civilian
and a good person with a life of your own to lead—and we teach you to win.
We provide individual instruction and give
individual attention within the
context of a class. You don't need to be a warrior, an
athlete, or expert
shooter or a marksman to take this class. You don't even
need any shotgun experience. We work with real
people in real situations and steer clear of fantasies. You can take this
Defensive Shotgun class more than once if you want.
You also can take our
Personal Protection
classes for added value and even greater perspectives.
