Course Description
This 5-day Instructor Certification level course is optimally designed for police snipers on SWAT teams who are wanting to begin a 50 Cal program or have a program and want to verify and/or validate their current training. Current domestic & international terrorist trends dictate a need to increase the deployment of large caliber rifles in support of SWAT teams and for overwatch positions at public venues and large-scale events. The continued use of vehicles as weapons overseas and in the homeland can be mitigated or potentially stopped through the proper deployment of large caliber rifles. This course is conducted in a crawl, walk, run progression and will enable the student to apply the curriculum learned back at their agencies for immediate use. All topics covered are relevant to deploying large caliber rifles in non-permissive environments. Instructor certification will be effective for 3 years from the date of training. Re-certification will be offered. Course is ideal for experience police snipers who are in an instructing role for their team.
