This 8-hour Firearms/Close Quarters Battle (CQB) course provides students with hands-on training designed to develop the firearms knowledge and tactical skills necessary to survive and prevail in realistic lethal force encounters. Through instructor-led practical exercises, often utilizing simulated firearms, participants will enhance critical psychomotor and gross motor skills that naturally diminish over time without consistent training. By the conclusion of the course, students will have increased confidence and proficiency in CQB tactics while also receiving updated legislative instruction, including AB 392, SB 230, and California Penal Code § 835a, ensuring that all training remains tactically relevant, legally current, and POST-compliant.
This 2-day course, with the secondary title “Advanced Carbine Operator – MACTAC,” is designed for sworn law enforcement personnel authorized to carry and deploy carbine rifles in the performance of their duties and is not intended as a basic rifle course. Students will train in the principles of MACTAC (Multi Assault Counter Terrorism Action Capabilities), including movement through barriers and close-quarters engagements conducted alongside other officers. Enrollment requires prior proficiency with the carbine and successful completion of a POST 16-hour Firearms/Tactical Rifle Course, a basic SWAT course, or an equivalent program. The curriculum also incorporates updated legislative mandates under AB 392, SB 230, and California Penal Code § 835a, ensuring instruction is both tactically relevant and legally compliant.
