Problem Solving Tactics
Class Overview
It is one thing to know how to shoot, but quite another to know when to shoot and what tactics to employ. In the problem solving tactics class you are forced to make decisions quickly and without notice. In this course you will work to solve problems you might encounter in the home, with vehicles, and on the street. These problems will become more complex as the class progresses and both live fire and simunitions will be used.
Every scenario will be different and will cause you to think through a problem and effectively solve it, while maintaining your composure. You will be placed in both “shoot/no-shoot” scenarios. At the end of each scenario there will be a briefing on the class’s overall performance and suggestions on what other options might have been available. By the end of the class, you will learn to think on your feet and problem solve.

Frequently Asked Questions
The equipment section mentions Simunitions. What are Simunitions?
Think of simunitions like shooting with small paintballs, but from real firearms. We use real handguns that are retrofitted so they can accept sims and can’t accept live ammunition. Sims are a non-lethal, soap based paint bullet (meaning they wash right off your clothes).
Can I rent a handgun for my training?
Absolutely! We have firearms available to rent for all of our classes, even precision rifles for our sniper classes. When you rent from us you will receive a full rental package that includes: the firearm, all necessary associated equipment (ear and eye protection, a holster and magazine pouch, etc.) as well as ammunition for your training.
Can I buy ammunition from you for training?
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.
