Anatomy of a Shooting
Class Overview
What is it like to be in a real shooting and what are the after effects of a shooting one can expect to encounter?
Re-enactments of real shootings that have transpired will be presented to the class with you as the shooter and the instructors as the suspects. Simunitions will be used. An experienced detective from the L.A.P.D.’s FID will demonstrate walk-throughs, will gather statements, contain the “crime” scene and do an O.I.S. reconstruction. Evidence will be contained and a crime scene will be established in the same way they are in real shootings. Students find out exactly what happens if you are ever involved in a deadly force encounter.
Scott Reitz will discuss, in great detail, some of his most recent shooting cases and talk through videos of shootings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Getting hit with simunitions is similar to getting hit with a paintball. You will be wearing a protective face mask and neck guard and as long as you dress in layers there’s nothing to worry about.
We don’t sell ammunition to those who are bringing their own firearm to class, they will need to supply their own. If you need help figuring out where to purchase ammunition, check out our Industry Partners!
We only provide ammunition to students who are renting firearms from us for the sole purpose of training.
