Description
As firearms technology advances, more and more individuals are starting to equip their duty pistols with red dot sights. Many are installing red dot sights and employing them without having proper training or practice with Pistol mounted RDS optics. This 16 hour RDS Instructor course will help Firearms Trainers teach shooters how to better familiarize themselves with the differences in use of iron sights vs. RDS equipped handguns and how to choose proper reliable equipment. Additionally, this course will cover RDS armoring, program maintenance, and how to select proper tools and equipment to have on hand to maintain a program at the agency armory level. Upon course completion, students will receive digital course material to take back to their respective agencies for full implementation of a RDS pistol program.
Sam is extremely knowledgeable and the class is very informative. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in attending a red dot instructor course. Definitely worth the money.

Overall, this was a great class and a lot of fun. I got to shoot with fellow LE from many different agencies. Sam and Bob were the instructors. Their passion and professionalism showed through in everything they did. I picked up two new ways to modify my technique that greatly improved my shooting ability. The only thing I wish woukd have been different was the number of rounds fired. The packing list called for 800, but we only fired about 470 rounds. Regardless, the rounds we did shoot were efficient in what we were able to accomplish.

I recommend if you are searching for solid instruction from top notch instructors you pay ETS a visit. We had a blast, as well as learning some things about ourselves. The need to push ourselves and fix mistakes we didn’t realize we were making.

this course was absolutely one of the best courses i have ever attended, Sams knowledge on the RDS is second to none. All tranining materrials were presnted in a professional manner, Sam demoed every drill gave a detailed explination of every drill and its applicability to the real world. I definitely left this class not just a better shooter but a better instructor, feeling more confident on the subject. If you attend this class you will absolutely be a better instructor and will be armed with the tools and knowledge you need to implement a new training program or add to what you have been doing. thank you Sam.
