Smashmouth Pistol is a hybrid live fire and Force on Force class. We will spend the morning with our carry guns, and after lunch, we will move over to using UTM for the rest of the day. We will focus on a number of principles and techniques covering Groundfighting, retention shooting, using the pistol as an impact weapon, and an intro to the transition from a fistfight to a gunfight.
You will get hit, do a lot of hitting, get some UTM welts and probably spend a lot of the day winded. This is not a physically easy class, but we will adjust the class to any physical limitations you may have. We will supply all needed UTM ammo and UTM Glocks or M&Ps.
