Adaptive Defense - Making John Rambo Proud

Adaptive Defense (1 Day Class) is about combining all the techniques we developed in the advanced handgun and rifle courses and FINALLY getting to go Full RAMBO! At Threat Dynamics, we focus on the civilian-based threat encounters, and there is, although unlikely, a posibility that one day the S#!@ might just hit the fan, so we had better train for that too. Besides we bought all this cool gear, so let’s use it! It’s always a fun training day when you find out that all that crap you put on your weapons and chest rig really can actually get in the way of practical movements. So again, let's put that to the test also! This is going to be a fun but intense training exercise, so get hydrated, and let’s load up for your first S.H.T.F. mission.
