By far one of the best firearms training you can find in MN. Within minutes of arriving I quickly discovered a lot of flaws in my technique and equipment choices...in a basic fundamentals class. I walked away today very humbled and with a lot more knowledge than when I initially walked into the range today.  My only regret is that I wished I had taken this course sooner. Thanks Beau, you just got yourself a new regular student!

Stress changes everything and you must train for it. At a Permit to Carry Training DMT taught this weekend and one student was a competent competitive shooter. The green circle is their shots when I was just using a shot timer and there was little to no stress, but then we did some more dynamic live fire micro scenarios and the result was the red circle. Competitions are a good tool, but once the buzzer goes away and the closer push of real life stress is involved, you’re not playing a game anymore. You need to train for this if you’re carrying a firearm for personal security. #train #traintowin #traintowinthefight #drilltowin #livefiretraining #concealedcarry #2a #army #thinblueline #selfdefense #glock #smithandwesson
