Static range shooting is a starting point—but it is not a destination. To truly master the use of a firearm in a defensive or competitive environment, you must learn to shoot on the move, clear malfunctions under stress, and win the fight when the conditions are against you.
The American Firearms Network (AFN) offers Advanced Firearms Training for shooters who are ready to transition from “proficient” to “elite.” Our advanced modules are designed to push your physical and mental limits through high-intensity, reality-based training.
At the American Firearms Network, we believe that “Advanced” doesn’t mean “Complex.” It meansperforming the
Fundamentals to a higher standard under Extreme Pressure.
Utilizing UTM/Simunition for the most realistic non-lethal tactical training available.
Our instructors use high-speed video to analyze your draw stroke and recoil management down to the millisecond.
Train alongside other high-level shooters in a culture of accountability and excellence.
Our advanced courses are not for the casual hobbyist. These programs are designed for CCW holders, security professionals, and competitive shooters who demand the highest level of performance from themselves and their equipment.
In a real-world encounter, you will rarely be standing still.
Shooting on the Move: Maintain accuracy while advancing, retreating, or lateral tracking.
Unconventional Positions: Learn to engage targets from seated, kneeling, prone, and supine positions.
Barricade Work: Master the use of “urban” cover—using vehicles, doorways, and corners to your tactical advantage.
When your firearm fails in a fight, you don’t have time to think. We drill Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 (Double Feed) clearances until they are subconscious reactions, even when one-handed or under physical exertion.
Over 60% of defensive encounters occur in low-light conditions. Our advanced curriculum includes:
Handheld vs. Weapon-Mounted Lights: Pros, cons, and techniques (FBI, Harries, etc.).
Positive Identification (PID): Identifying threats in the shadows.
Flash-and-Move Tactics: Using light as a tool to disorient threats.
We utilize shot timers to push your “split times” without sacrificing “A-zone” accuracy.
Multiple Target Engagement: Efficiently transitioning between threats at varying distances.
Emergency & Tactical Reloads: Keeping your weapon in the fight through proactive ammo management.
