This is an intense, four-day, 40-hour immersion course in the “rules of engagement” for armed law-abiding private citizens. We will shoot on 31 March and 1 April 16 and attend classroom on 2 and 3 April 16. Eric Lamberson will instruct the Range/Live Fire portion (MAG 20 Range) and Massad Ayoob will instruct the classroom portion (MAG 20 Classroom).

You may also sign up for and take only the MAG 20 Live Fire OR the MAG 20 Armed Citizen portion and receive a MAG 20 certificate for the course you take. Please call if you have questions.

Range work on days 1 & 2 will include instruction in the use of the defensive handgun under extreme stress. Eric will teach drawing from concealment, two-handed stances, shooting from cover, one-handed stances with either hand, speed reloading, and more are taught with an overall emphasis on fast, accurate shot placement. The range instruction will culminate with a police-style handgun qualification course.

Massad teaches the Armed Citizens Rules of Engagement--a two-day, 20-hour immersion course in rules of engagement for armed law-abiding private citizens, emphasizing legal issues, tactical issues, and aftermath management. Topics will include interacting with suspects, witnesses, responding police officers, threat recognition and mind-set, management of social and psychological aftermath after having had to use lethal force in defense of self or others, and preparing beforehand for legal repercussions and minimizing exposure to them. Massad's instruction covers situations in the home, at the place of business, or on the street.

Touching this post so I can find it later! :)

Drives me crazy when folks post up class announcements but don't include the price...

$800.

or $400 for each half (live fire 2 days or classroom 2 days).

Sorry--I'll try to be better next time.

MAG 40 is a combination of the MAG 20 Live Fire and the MAG 20 Armed Citizen. Each MAG 20 is a sub component of MAG 40—with each covering one half of the MAG 40 course material. If you complete both, you will receive credit for and a certificate for MAG 40.

However, you may also sign up for and take only the MAG 20 Live Fire OR the MAG 20 Armed Citizen and receive a MAG 20 certificate for the course you take.

The cost for MAG 20 Live Fire is $400.00
The cost for MAG 20 Armed Citizen is $400.00

Total for both (equals MAG 40) $800.00

The $200.00 option(s) is for those who wish to place a deposit and reserve a spot in the class(es).

If the class wasn't 4 days long I'd consider it, but I can't justify 4 days vacation for a class

Hope some can take advantage of the opportunity thogh

2 work days; 2 weekend days. You can also take one class one year and the other the next year. You would then receive credit for both. We try to be accommodating. If I could only take one, it would be the classroom portion.

My wife likes to tell me I'm dense sometimes, and she's probably right. So let me ask a stupid question: class pre-requisite says I have to prove I have no criminal record. How do I do that?

Show them a LTC? I mean that seems like a good indication. If that doesn't cover it I don't know what does. It isn't a guarantee of a clear record, but proves no felonies, and nothing misdemeanor for 5 years (at least).

Is this cost in line with other self defense training classes such as this?

The primary proof of clean criminal history that 99% of students provide is a LTC/CHL. Current FFL, LEA credentials, Active Duty military ID are also acceptable. Failing any of these, a letter/form from your sheriff’s department is all you need--most will run these for you at a nominal fee, done routinely in many occupations. If you are eligible for a LTC/CHL you will meet the requirement.
