Low Light Pistol

We face threats of violence every day, and sometimes they come at night.

We’ve developed the Low Light Course curriculum to address the growing demand to learn the techniques Special Operators, SWAT, and law enforcement officers use to operate in limited visibility. The course will not only cover how to employ weapons lights but handheld lights as well. Learn how to defensively shoot a pistol in a low light-self defense situation.
