2025-09-28 09:00 - 18:00 | Oklahoma City Gun Club Training Range, 12465 E Sorghum Mill Rd, Arcadia, OK, 73007, United States
Many people are concerned about the possibility of being caught in or around an active shooter/spree killer/active murderer event. Is it possible to survive and even to prevail over a shooter armed with a long gun? We believe, based on documented cases, that it is.
In this class we will explore techniques for engaging active murderers in crowded and uncrowded environments, the roles and use of cover and concealment in these engagements, movement during the engagement, and importantly what to do in the aftermath of the engagement.
Focus: engagement of active murderers, gunfighting in crowded environments, the aftermath.
Note: students must be a graduate of Inclusive Defense Training I or be able to demonstrate the ability to safely draw and reholster a handgun.
Cost for this class is $185.00 per person which includes a $25.00 range fee for any who are not members of the Oklahoma City Gun Club. Oklahoma City Gun Club members should contact me for a code to subtract the range fee.

Extreme Close Quarters Gunfighting
2025-11-23 08:00 - 17:00 | Oklahoma City Gun Club Training Range, 12465 E Sorghum Mill Rd, Arcadia, OK, 73007, United States
The skills you gained in your license to carry class or your initial “learning to draw from a holster and put rounds on target” class may not work when the fight happens within arms reach Extreme close range gunfighting is a completely different skill set, one that relies far more on FIGHTING than on mere shooting.

With up to 50% of gun fight fatalities occurring at ranges closer than 5 feet, you need this skill set. Join our instructor team as we teach a dynamic close quarters gunfighting class that will cover the following topics:

Retention shooting positions
Body positioning and shooting stances for the close quarters fight
In fight weapons access and drawing skills
Defeating the unarmed, but physically superior opponent
Stopping an opponents draw
Mechanical and tactical considerations for making contact distance shots
Close quarters gun disarms
One handed close quarters malfunction drills
Drawing and shooting from unconventional positions
Weapons retention (in holster and in hand)

The class will be physical, but you will be able to control your level of participation in each drill. This class will not include any physical conditioning nor will it evolve into some type of “fight club“ scenario.

You will be tired at the end of the day, but if you can stand on your feet and engage in light intensity, upper body exercise for a period of a few hours you will do absolutely fine in this class.

As always, there will be loaner pistols/holsters/belts available for students.
You will need at least one extra magazine for this class. More than one magazine will be helpful. A magazine carrier will also be helpful, but we have a number available for loan to students.
Note: students must be a graduate of Inclusive Defense Training I or be able to demonstrate the ability to safely draw and reholster a handgun.
Cost for this class is $125.00 per person which includes a $25.00 range fee for any who are not members of the Oklahoma City Gun Club. Oklahoma City Gun Club members should contact me for a code to subtract the range fee.

Inclusive Defense Training .22 Carbine for Home Defense
2026-05-17 10:00 - 15:30 | Oklahoma City Gun Club Training Range, 12465 E Sorghum Mill Rd, Arcadia, OK, 73007, United States
A .22 LR carbine makes sense for persons who are not firearms enthusiasts that need the means to defend themselves and possibly other family members in the event of burglary or home invasion. Persons who are not able to competently and safely handle centerfire handguns may find that not only can they accurately shoot .22 LR caliber semi-automatic carbines (including short-barreled .22 LR pistols with arm braces), but that learning to shoot the same is actually enjoyable. The majority of burglars and home invaders are not willing to get shot with any firearm, and a single round from a .22 LR carbine that strikes a specific zone of neutralization can render even the most violent criminal home intruder physically incapable of continuing his or her attack. A responsible person possessing the knowledge, tools, and skills to be their own first responder if need be may also experience an enhanced sense of security when alone at home.
Topics addressed in the class include firearm familiarization, defensive gunhandling, blending accuracy with speed, shooting from unorthodox position, rapid target neutralization based upon the principles of Tactical Anatomy, and the importance of shooting from cover and concealment.
We will have a few .22 caliber carbines available to loan/share – please just let us know if you will need to borrow one when you enroll.
Cost for this class is $100. That includes a $25 range fee that we pay directly to the Oklahoma City Gun Club. If you are an OKCGC me member please contact me from a coupon code to subtract that amount from your enrollment fee.
