About the course
About AHT/AmTac Intro to Pistol Combatives
The Intro to Pistol Combatives is a one-day collaboration course with AHT and AmTac Shooting, led by David Acosta Jr. This combative pistol course builds on the fundamentals taught in our Defensive Pistol course, filling in the gaps to prepare students for real-world encounters.
Designed to integrate pistol deployment with striking and blade techniques, this combat pistol course teaches strategies to transition seamlessly between tools based on situational awareness.
Students will gain a deeper understanding of the dynamics of violence and develop tactical skills to respond effectively in high-pressure scenarios. This combative firearms training is a must for anyone serious about elevating their defensive capabilities.
