OpSpec Training returns to Mesa, Arizona and the Rio Salado Sportsman’s Club offering our flagship Practical Fundamentals class on Feb. 8 & 9, 2019. This class has been very popular with all pistol shooters including law enforcement and competition shooters. Rio Salado is located about 30 minutes northeast of Mesa, and 30 minutes east of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.

We encourage you to reserve your class slot and make hotel reservations early, as this has been a popular class in the past.

This is not a basic class. At minimum, students should have taken a basic handgun safety course and be confident with their firearm and gear. We expect students to have experience shooting on a line in a safe manner, including loading, reloading and drawing/shooting from the holster. Shooters with IDPA, USPSA, NRA Action Pistol, 3-Gun, law enforcement and military experience meet the program prerequisites.

Wondering about the OpSpec Training experience? READ OUR CLASS TESTIMONIALS

Practical Fundamentals
Using a building-block approach, Practical Fundamentals encourages students to focus on the process of running the gun, tamping down the emotional desire to see results on the target. By using a variety of dry fire and live fire exercises, students are brought through the fundamentals of marksmanship with a focus on trigger control to help the shooter make fast hits on small targets, on demand.

Instructors*: Jerry Jones & Kyle Sandlin

When: Feb. 8 & 9, 2019 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day

Class size: Limited to 24 students, with a minimum of 12 students.

Tuition: $450, with a $225 deposit

Range Fees: $40, to be paid in cash directly to the range on the morning of Feb. 8.

Local Host: Alan Haynie

Ammunition: Round count for Practical Fundamentals will be approximately 750 - 850 rounds

Evil exists. You can not negotiate with, bribe or placate evil. You're not going to be able to have it sit down with Dr. Phil for an anger management session either.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken

I'm very interested! Anything special for weather in Mesa in February?

This is a drive for me, but I don't think it will be too bad.

All set, looking forward to it.

Expect the weather to be a little chilly in the morning but shorts and T-Shirt weather in the afternoon. A few thin layers will be your friend. Hope to see you out here
