Kinetic Gunfighter
Kinetic Gunfighter is an advanced, movement-focused pistol and rifle course designed to develop shooters who can think, move, and win in dynamic environments. This program blends core gunfighting fundamentals with MACTAC-influenced movement, team-aware problem solving, and rapid transitions between weapons, positions, and points of cover. Students will push beyond static marksmanship and learn to apply accurate fire while moving, communicating, and managing evolving threats. The course emphasizes practical gunfighting mechanics, efficient movement, and the ability to problem-solve under pressure. Who this course is for: armed professionals (LE/MIL/security), DAG alumni seeking to advance gunfighting skills, and experienced shooters ready to move beyond static range work. Requirements: Students must have solid pistol and rifle fundamentals, safe gun-handling skills, and the ability to operate both platforms efficiently.
