Why this program is needed:

With decades of  various Combat training with Private Armed Security, Police, and Army SF  we came to conclusions : 

• Most Tactical Firearms courses (programs) are typical Basic Army Shooting courses with some funny stuff from Sport Practical Shooting drills and fancy show of various combat uniforms and gear.

•   Plus most Tactical Firearms courses (programs) are built for big Teams with proper Logistic and Power Support.

• Our program is designed for Small Bodyguard (Close Protection Operatives) Groups (1-5 operatives) operating in a Hostile Environment without any logistics and Power Support. 

• Our concept - Task Orientated Adaptation and Improvisation to Perform Effectively and Safely through a Real Fire-Fight.

• Our project was built keeping in mind, that Situation Determines Preparation.
