In a real-world gunfight, you won’t be given a perfect stance, full mobility, or time to plan. You may already be wounded, disoriented, or behind the curve. The question isn’t if things will go wrong—it’s how ready you are when they do.
The Injured Shooter: Pistol Course is an immersive training program that prepares you to fight and survive under compromised physical conditions. Whether you’re dealing with an injured limb, limited mobility, or degraded vision, this course teaches you to adapt your skills and keep your firearm in the fight.
What You’ll Learn
This course is about functionality under duress, with a direct focus on:
-
Drawing from a holster using only one hand (dominant and non-dominant)
-
Firing from compromised or grounded positions
-
One-handed reloads and malfunction clearances
-
Transitions from pistol to carbine with an injured limb
-
Using cover and concealment as tactical support
-
Keeping your firearm operational with minimal mobility
Three Feeding Methods Covered
-
On-Body:
Re-holstering, mag insertions using body reference points (e.g., waistband, belt, pocket angles). -
Off-Body:
Utilizing walls, barricades, ground pressure, or range props to assist with reloads and clearing stoppages. -
Pinning Techniques:
Securing the firearm between knees, under arms, or against hard surfaces to maintain control and functionality while manipulating the weapon.
