Y'all have probably seen the Training Video, if not, do check them out on their website, Magpul Dynamics. Too do a search on YouTube and you'll see more of the guys from MD and Chris Costa. I'm coordinating a 2 day course in July of 2009. Sounds a little early, but it never hurts to plan early with these things. So here's the info: Who: Magpul Dynamics What: Dyanmic Carbine 1 (or 2 if the student level is there) When: July 11 & 12 (Saturday & Sunday) Where: Sacramento Valley Shooting Center Some info on the class: Dynamic Carbine 1 2 day course | ammo 1500rds, 200rds pistol Course Description An entry-level course where students are familiarized with their rifles. The class will thoroughly cover: Proper choice and placement of gear Different optics and accessories Effective shooting stance Proper weapon grip Recoil control Sight alignment Sight picture using iron sights and electronic optics Trigger control Speed reloads Tactical reloads Possible malfunctions of the rifle Strong and weak hand shooting while both stationary and on the move Different shooting positions Choosing the proper position for the task The course starts in the classroom and will include extensive dry fire exercises. Hardware/Kit A functional carbine or submachine gun chambered in 5.56x45, 5.45x39 or 7.62x39mm or standard pistol caliber weapon systems. If available, a spare weapon system is also an excellent idea. A cleaning kit and tools that are compatible with the weapon system(s) in question is also a must. Each student should have a minimum of 5 working magazines. Sometimes magazines will make it in your dump bag and sometimes they won't. If they hit the ground they can become fouled, causing weapon malfunctions and time off the line. Note pad, and pen/pencil Clothing suited to strenuous type activity as well as being seasonally appropriate Appropriate foot wear Rain gear / cold weather gear (seasonal) Ear pro (electronic preferred) Eye pro, which wraps around Clear lenses for night shoots Baseball style hat recommended Primary weapon sling, single point, or a good system that allows flexibility for transitions and reaction side weapon manipulations A rig that can carry a minimum of four (4) primary magazines on your person Functioning secondary weapon system, and three working magazines A holster and magazine pouch that will retain your equipment when moving Primary weapon mounted light Secondary weapon mounted or handheld light Spare bulbs and batteries for all lights Tools that work on your weapon Weapons lube Optics will require adjustment tools and spare batteries Water hydrating device Knee and Elbow pads (optional) Gloves (optional) An open mind. Dynamic Carbine 2 2 day course | ammo 1500rds carbine, 800rds handgun Course Description This is a fast paced, hands-on, super dynamic live fire course with minimal time spent in the classroom. Starting with combat mindset, the class thoroughly covers: Rapid threat analysis and acquisition Shooting on the move Multiple target engagement Strong and reaction side shooting Malfunctions Natural and improvised shooting positions Barricade shooting Shooting from vehicles (client dependant) Concealed shooting Low light tactics Individual and team confidence enhancement shooting drills Individual and team live fire stress courses Hardware/Kit A functional carbine or submachine gun chambered in 5.56x45, 5.45x39 or 7.62x39mm or standard pistol caliber weapon systems.

This will be a 2 day course (as stated above). Details with the range are still being finalized, but if it works out, both course, will include night fire and use of different lighting scenarios. Too, while a Carbine 1 course is a great course for all, if you have received training from a reputable instructor and are proficient with your carbine and handgun, they will be happy to do a Carbine 2 course (which I would prefer!).
