COURSE DESCRIPTIONS:

ACCEPTABLE AR15's and California Compliant Rifles

All rifles used in this course must function with AR15 style controls. Derivitives of the AR15 such as alternative calibers, and modified receivers are acceptable as long as the controls, and functions mirror the AR15 platform.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS: California Compliant rifles should be designed around what is commonly referred to as a “Featureless” build. This enables the shooter to utilize standard magazines, magazine release, and perform basic functions. We do not advise attending training with a “Fixed Magazine” build. Although a fixed magazine build visually appears consistent with a traditional AR15, the fixed magazine and all builds that fall within this category, are NOT user friendly, easy to manipulate under stress, or facilitate simple malfunctions clearing and in some cases, will require tools to render back in operable conditions.

The target audience for this course are AR15 owners who wish to greatly enhance their fundamentals.
