OpSpec Training is bringing our three-day, Advanced Pistol Operator Course (APOC) to our favorite training facility – SIG SAUER Academy. September will be a great time to visit the area and get some training in. This class will be held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday after the Labor Day Weekend holiday. (Sept. 7-9, 2017)

If you’re an intermediate shooter or law enforcement officer looking to improve your pistol skills at speed, our three-day APOC is the accelerated program you are looking for. The class focuses on running your handgun at speed in a variety of conditions.

Suitable for the intermediate to advanced competitive shooter or armed professional, APOC does have prerequisites. At a minimum, the class participant should be able to safely draw a pistol and hit a man-sized target at seven yard in the neighborhood of 1.5 seconds. Ideally, you will have attended an OpSpec Training two or three day Practical Fundamentals class or equivalent training within the last three years.

Instructors*: Bruce Gray

When: Sept. 7-9, 2017, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.

Class size: Limited to 16 students, with a minimum of 12.

Tuition: $675.

Range Fees: Included in class fee.

Ammunition: Round count will be 2,200 (750 per day).

Wondering more about this class? Are you unable to attend MOAC?

This class is a high round count and is somewhat similar to the MOAC program, but only three days.

Three days, with at least a few hours of free time to wander around the SIG Pro Shop....

Might seem like a long time, but remember the Academy classes frequently get a lot of students, and this class is limited to a maximum of 16.

See you in New Hampshire!

Bump!

TTT

SIG Sauer Academy is indicating there are only a few slots remaining in this class. If you're interested, get registered and your hotel booked.

Bump!

Bump, as SIG Sauer Academy is showing only one slot remaining for this class. (There might be more, but don't miss out.)

TTT

This class may be filled, but please call SIG SAUER Academy to see if there is space available. Occasionally, space opens up during the last week.

Three instructors at this class. Well worth the trip.

This course is full. Dudes are getting on planes and heading to the Academy as we speak.......

Update: If you are local or willing to drive in, I would pick up the phone and call the Academy today to see if any space is available. Can't hurt to try!
