Independence Firearms & Training

Level 2 Rifle Self Defense Course  

Whether you’re an individual, on a church safety team, in law enforcement, or in the military our Level 2 Rifle Self Defense Course is the perfect way to take your shooting and defensive skills to the next level. Shooting multiple targets quickly and accurately is not only fun but has plenty of real-world self defense purposes if you encounter multiple attackers or intruders. We breakdown how and when to shoot fast, and how not to shoot faster than you can accurately put shots on target. The class also works on skills needed to engage multiple targets, shooting on the move, shooting around cover, the concept of calling your shots and rifle to pistol transitions. Students can bring any semi-auto rifle they prefer, including a 22LR or a PCC and their pistol. Bring what you plan to use for home defense, and we'll help you get comfortable and confident using it.

This is not a beginner learn to shoot class. Check out our Level 1 Rifle Self Defense Course if you'd like to learn to shoot semi-auto rifle.
