PDT's "The Test" force-on-force in SC 9/18/05

"The Test" Force-on-Force in SC

Ever wondered how you would perform in a real confrontation? Here's a chance to find out as PDT will offer "The Test" on 9/18/05 at a private facility in Fountain Inn, SC (near Greenville & Spartanburg).

This is a day of inter-active, force-on-force training against human adversaries. This program is designed to provide you with "emotionally significant events" so that if you are ever involved in an actual conflict, you will have relevant experience. Short of being involved in a genuine attack, this is the closest you can come to the real thing. You will be provided with all equipment needed which includes Glock 17 marking guns and revolvers which fire marking rounds and all protective equipment. Each attendee will participate in multiple scripted realistic scenarios of their own as and will be able to observe during other attendees scenarios. Your actions will be individually critiqued during an after action debriefing and weather permitting, each scenario will be video taped for possible use during the group debrief. You'll also receive a DVD of the scenarios

Normally, this type of training is restricted to military/LE but this session is open for civilians. Tuition is $150.00 per person. A link to the online registration is https://www.personaldefensetraining....&calendarId=57 A 50% deposit is required to secure a reservation with final balance at least ten business days prior to the class date. Class size is limited to 8.


If interested, please contact me as these sessions tend to fill up quickly due to limited class size and limited availablility.

What's the deal with all these only LE/Mil only classes? You think us regular civilians are not good enough?

That is a pretty stupid comment. David traines LEO side by side with civilians.
It is just a matter of fact that force on force training for civilians isn't wildely available.

Junior Commando,

I think you missed the point which Cato pointed out. ALL of the courses I offer are open to anyone of good character, unless privately contracted for by an agency. Cops are civilians as you mention but they also have different rules of engagement and procedures from non-LE civilians. In an open enrollment course like this, the scenarios will be relevant to everyday life, not LE specific.
