We want to train your unit or agency!

Choosing a new training partner is a big decision to make.


  • We can bring one of your key people here for training, or we can send one of ours there for a sample course.
  • We customize 5-day, 3-day, 2-day, 1, and 1/2-day modules for handgun/carbine.
  • We can design an entire holistic Combat Effective Marksmanship training system incorporating metrics and additional innovative training tools.
  • We can come to your POST Academy (or in-service training) and provide shooting skill training integrated into your existing lesson plans.
  • We teach a powerful system called “Reactive Shooting Science.”
  • We offer Instructor Development and Certification courses that teach your trainers how to use this system. TPC Instructor Development courses significantly improve handgun or carbine shooting skills, teaching skills, problem diagnosis, corrective techniques, and can optionally certify instructor shooting or teaching ability. Instructors become better shooters and also learn to identify, diagnose, and fix students based on principles that apply to any student’s experience level.
  • We offer Skill Development courses that teach your personnel how to use this system to dramatically improve their shooting performance. Our method of shooting works efficiently regardless of the physical size or strength of the students. It adapts to them.
  • A key tenet we utilize is measurement – you will know skill levels precisely through the use of our TPC rating system.

MISSION

To provide the firearms instructors, officers, and personnel the skills and abilities to understand and apply the Reactive Shooting Science system of high-performance shooting.

Our Handgun / Carbine Skill courses focus on skill development backed by our TPC rating system that provides an objective measure of skill level and improvement. Don’t guess if your officers or unit is improving – measure it!

METHODOLOGY

Through a combination of lecture, group discussion, demonstration, and testing, each student will learn how to practically apply the concepts of Reactive Shooting to enhance the agency’s instructional foundation of imparting life-saving skills to the agents and personnel.

Each student will learn the principles of Reactive Shooting Science and how to apply those principles on an individual basis with both the handgun and carbine/patrol rifle. They will then learn how to diagnose shooter deficiencies using these principles and how to improve those they teach and mentor. Each student will have ample opportunities to demonstrate proficiency, competency, and understanding of these principles. Every participant will have to complete both practical and written tests to complete the course of instruction.

Combat Effective Performance Marksmanship

The efficiency of the use of lethal or potentially lethal force by armed forces and law-enforcement officials in a situation of unavoidable armed conflict is determined by many factors.

In the military force, combat effectiveness is defined by the capacity or performance of the units to succeed in undertaking an operation, mission, or objective. Some of the main factors are:

  • Combat/Operational Effectiveness
  • Quantitive Measures
  • Technical Expertise
  • Psychological Factors
  • Logistics and Support

In law enforcement agencies the skill sets and highly calibrated application of force are a critical necessity as well. In that case, factual or operational complexity is accompanied by legal complexity. Nevertheless, technical expertise is of utmost importance for operational confidence, which will lead to better decision-making and eventual de-escalation of the given situation.

In both cases, a significant component of that technical expertise is the element we call Combat Effective Marksmanship.

Combat Effective Marksmanship

Combat effective marksmanship incorporates the elements:

  • Performance Reactive Marksmanship (including weapon manipulations)
  • Mindset and Awareness.

Shooting well involves a series of coordinated activities, both mental and physical, that must be done in the correct sequence to be successful. To shoot fast and accurately under pressure, you need a complete set of mental and physical skills as well as a very detailed picture of how everything works together in a synergetic manner.

Achieving a degree of subconscious competence is a significant and necessary factor as well. Developing skills in the right way is of great importance for efficiency and effectiveness in the future. That is why thoroughly detailed training with a high level of focus is extremely important.

If you do not understand what your system is, how it works, the principles behind it, and how to adapt or change it over time by improving key elements in an organized way then you will never reach your true potential or the potential of your cadre. 

GENERAL OVERVIEW:

Principles of high-performance marksmanship

  • Fire Control Triangle – purposes, principles, and techniques of the stance, grip, and trigger control for high-speed shooting, maintaining high-level accuracy
  • Types of trigger manipulations
  • Reactive Shooting Cycle – the “algorithm” of the shot
  • Visual acceptability
  • Focal continuum – different types of focus and vision methods
  • The secrets of the high-efficiency target transitions, engaging multiple targets.
  • Achieving total control while shooting strong or support hand only.
  • The effective, high-speed draw/presentation.
  • Principles of shooting on the move

Weapons manipulations

Methods for diagnostics (students’ performance)

  • Reading a shooting group patterns
  • Most common shooting problems and errors – instant fix of the problem
  • Mental analogies and representations

The Tactical Decision-Making Equation

  • Learn a systematic method for arriving at sound decisions that mitigate liability for the agency. This equation will allow for a consistent formula of decision-making and evaluation.

TESTIMONIALS

“It’s by far the best shooting course I’ve ever taken, and without TPC I wouldn’t be the performance shooter or instructor that I am today.”

– F.R., Former Navy SEAL

“After 21 years of service in some highly respected units (2/7 Marines Scout Sniper Platoon, 75th Ranger Regiment, 3rd Special Forces Group) and 9 combat deployments, I felt I had a pretty good handle on firearms and tactics. After taking a Tactical Performance Center Handgun Mastery course, I learned that was not the case.”

– P.T. Former Army Ranger / U.S. Marie Corps Scout Sniper

“I highly recommend TPC for anyone interested in increasing their gun handwriting skills. the level of detail in the instruction was excellent.”

– Team Leader, Federal SWAT Tac Team

“TPC earned my respect and admiration within the first few hours… I saw improvement in each evolution of training.”

– SWAT officer, Seattle Police Dept.

“The best training, I have been to in 8 years in the air force.”

– Combat Arms Firearms Instructor, USAF

“I learned more in this class than in 22 years of law enforcement.”

– Deputy, Orange County Sheriff Dept (California)

“This course was amazing. The boundaries of what humans can do is constantly being pushed thanks to techniques, technology and training.”

– SWAT Instructor, Sandy Police Department (UT)
