Jeff Cooper\, the legendary founder of Gunsite Academy\, is quoted as having said\, “Owning a handgun doesn’t make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.” Although marksmanship skill is critical to the ability to use a handgun in self-defense\, marksmanship alone is not sufficient. \nThis class addresses the basic information\, skills\, and situations relating to the use of a handgun as a self-defense tool and is also taught as a Women-Only-Taught-by-a-Female-Instructor class. The class provides an overview of the legal\, psychological\, and law-enforcement response issues (These are also covered in greater depth a separate Indy Arms classroom courses; Essentials of Indiana Gun Law\, Practical and Legal Realities of Self-Defense\, and USCCA Concealed Carry) \nThis class focuses on the fundamental safety\, marksmanship and manipulation skills required to use a handgun effectively. (Carrying\, drawing\, and the associated equipment are covered in a separate Indy Arms hands-on course\, Tactical Handgun I\, II\, and III.) This course will consist of about 2 ½ hours of classroom and “dry” handling and drills\, and about 1 ½ hours of live-fire range time. The class is nominally four hours in length\, but may sometimes run a little run longer\, depending on attendance and the number of questions. \nThis class has been developed by experts on Indy Arms staff\, including nationally recognized authors and presenters\, and career firearms instructors and law-enforcement trainers. \nThe class will include the use of a rental gun at no additional cost. Students may use their own defensive handgun and ammo. \nStudents will receive a detailed course handout and additional information on available resources. \nCourse Goal \n“To allow the student to gain an understanding of basic handgun skills\, and practice those basic skills with expert coaching and advice.” \nLessons \n\nBasic Firearm and Range Safety\nOverview of the legal\, psychological\, and law enforcement issues relating to defensive firearm use.\nThe Basics of Firearms Use and Handling.\nDry Handling and Practice in the classroom.\nLive-Fire Range Exercises\nReview and Questions\n\nPrerequisites: None. However; if you are new to firearms you are strongly encouraged to take our Introduction to Handgun prior to this class \nCourse Completion: Students will receive an Indy Arms Company certificate of attendance upon completion of the course \nCost: $99.00 \nIncluded: \n\nRental Handgun if needed (Students are welcome to bring their own handgun)\nPersonal Protection Equipment: Eye and Ear Rental\nTargets\n\nCustomer Responsibility/Gear: \n\nComplete Liability Waiver prior to the start of class – Click Here\n75 rounds of ammunition\nArrive at least 15 minutes prior to class for check in\n\nNOTES: \n\nRental handguns must use ammunition purchased from Indy Arms\nStudents under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult (ask about a youth discount for training classes)\nStudents arriving more than 10 minutes after the designated start time may not be allowed into class and will need to reschedule\n\n***Please come in 15- 20 min early to complete the necessary check in process before any training class.

Basic marksmanship ability and an understanding of the rule of law governing the use of force in self-defense are certainly a necessary part of this skill set. But for those seeking serious competence\, a much broader set of abilities is required. Each of the three Tactical Handgun classes builds on the skills and techniques taught and practiced in the preceding classes. \nThe class will consist of about 2.5 hours of classroom time and 1.5 hours of live-fire range time. \nThe class requires 150 rounds of ammunition. \nCourse Goal: To begin the structured development of the fundamental skills required to comfortably and effectively carry and use a handgun for personal defense\, and to provide the student with techniques and exercises to develop and refine these skills. \nLessons \n\n Legal Framework of Defensive Handgun Use\nHandgun and Ammunition Selection and Options\nDrawing from your Carry Holster or Carry Purse\nBasic Defensive Live-Fire\nEssential Malfunction Clearing\nSpeed Reloading\nScanning and Simple Movement\n\nPrerequisites: Students taking Tactical Pistol I should have an understanding of simple marksmanship\, and the basic operation of their handgun. Individuals taking this class should have the personal handgun that they intend to use/carry for personal defense\, along with a suitable outside-the-waistband holster or carry purse with a dedicated department for firearms carry. Indy Arms Basic Defensive Handgun\, and/or USCCA Concealed Carry Handgun are acceptable prerequisites\, as are most classes from recognized shooting schools. Experienced shooters who have not taken any formal classes should contact Indy Arms to make arrangements to drop by for a brief skills checkout. If you have any questions\, please contact Indy Arms staff. \nCourse Completion: Students will receive an Indy Arms Company certificate of attendance upon completion of the course. \nCost: $99.00 \nIncluded: \n\nPersonal Protection Equipment: Eye and Ear Rental\nTargets\nTraining Aids\n\nCustomer Responsibility/Gear: \n\nComplete Liability Waiver prior to the start of class – Click Here\nArrive at least 15 minutes prior to class for check in\nHandgun\, a proper non collapsing holster and a good stiff belt to retain your gun properly\n150 Rounds of ammunition and 2 magazines\n\nNOTES: \n\nRental handguns must use ammunition purchased from Indy Arms\nStudents under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult (ask about a youth discount for training classes)\nStudents arriving more than 10 minutes after the designated start time may not be allowed into class and will need to reschedule\n\n***Please come in 15- 20 min early to complete the necessary check in process before any training class.

What would be needed if shortages extended from days to weeks\, to months? Additionally\, what items and skills would be needed if being your own first responder no longer was a stopgap while waiting for emergency services to arrive but instead you are the only responder period? \nThis class will examine the ‘real world’ likelihood of various levels of interruptions of support services (food\, water\, power\, septic) and emergency services (police\, medical\, fire). What would be your basic plan and what would you need for each level of interruption. The course will include detailed reasonable suggestions for each level of interruption (days to weeks\, month\, potentially permeant) would require. \nCourse Goal \n“To allow the student to make an informed decisions regarding emergency preparedness plans\, equipment/previsions\, and skills.” \nLessons \n\nLikelihood of minor to major services interruptions\nOverview of the services we take for granted\, until they are gone\nCreating plans for potential events.\nSkills needed in the absence of services.\nSupplies needed in the absences of services.\nReasonable evaluation of risks and costs\nReview and Questions.\n\nPrerequisites: None. \nCost : $40.00 \nGear: None. \n***Please come in 15- 20 min early to complete the necessary check in process before any training class.

The class is based on the most common self-defense rifles\, of which the AR15 platform is the overwhelmingly dominant example. The Ruger Mini-14 (based on the Garand platform) and the AK family of rifles (commonly but incorrectly referred to as the AK47) are also suitable for the class (if you are bringing a rifle other than an AR15 platform\, please inform Indy Arms when you register for the class). \nRifles are extremely effective home self-defense weapons\, and they have both advantages and limitations. These need to be understood and respected to use the rifle effectively and safely. \nRifle handling safety\, range safety\, and safe storage are addressed. We will go through the basic operating systems of these platforms\, and the most common malfunctions. We will practice basic handling\, operation\, loading and unloading with dummy ammunition in the classroom\, and proper mounting of the rifle and use of the sights. The course concludes with live-fire session on the range\, shot at various distances and speeds. And can be shot with both iron sights and with optics if those are available. It is important to have usable iron sights on the firearm. Optics can be finicky\, depend on batteries\, and can sometimes be difficult to dial in. \nThis course will consist of about 2 ½ hours of classroom material and practice\, and about 1 ½ hours of live-fire range time. The class is nominally four hours in length\, but sometimes runs a bit longer\, based on student questions. \nStudents will shoot 150 rounds of ammunition. \nCourse Goal\n“To allow the student to understand the operation and appropriate use of the defensive semi-auto rifle\, and to provide information and basics that will allow the student to practice and improve those skills.” \nLessons \n\nBasic Rifle\, Home and Range Safety\nRifle Operating Systems.\nCommon Malfunctions.\nLoading and Unloading\nProper Mounting and Sighting Technique\nLive Fire Range Exercises\nEquipment and Ammunition\nReview and Questions\n\nPrerequisites: None \nCourse Completion: Students will receive an Indy Arms Company certificate of attendance upon completion of the course. \nCost: $99.00 \nIncluded: \n\nPersonal Protection Equipment: Eye and Ear Rental\nTargets\n\nCustomer Responsibility/Gear: \n\nComplete Liability Waiver prior to the start of class – Click Here\nArrive at least 15 minutes prior to class for check in\nRifle\n\nAR-15 Platform chambered in .223\, 5.56\, 22LR\, or pistol calibers\nMini-14 chambered in .223 or 7.62\nAKS Platform chambered in 7.62\n\n\n150 Rounds of ammunition\, 2 magazines\, and functioning iron sights\n\nNOTES: \n\nThis class is specifically designed for the AR-15 platform. Other rifles are allowed; however\, the student must understand that certain lessons and drills may need to be modified or skipped if using a different rifle. We strongly suggest the used of an AR-15 platform for this class.\nStudents may purchase ammo from Indy Arms or bring their own ammunition for use in a class as long as it adheres to Indy Arms’ ammunition policies.\nStudents under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult (ask about a youth discount for training classes)\nStudents arriving more than 10 minutes after the designated start time may not be allowed into class and will need to reschedule\n\n***Please come in 15- 20 min early to complete the necessary check in process before any training class.

Jeff Cooper\, the legendary founder of Gunsite Academy\, is quoted as having said\, “Owning a handgun doesn’t make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.” Although marksmanship skill is critical to the ability to use a handgun in self-defense\, marksmanship alone is not sufficient. \nThis class addresses the basic information\, skills\, and situations relating to the use of a handgun as a self-defense tool. The class provides an overview of the legal\, psychological\, and law-enforcement response issues. (These are also covered in greater depth a separate Indy Arms classroom courses; Essentials of Indiana Gun Law\, Fundamentals of Armed Self-Defense\, and USCCA Concealed Carry) \nThis class focuses on the fundamental safety\, marksmanship and manipulation skills required to use a handgun effectively. (Carrying\, drawing\, and the associated equipment are covered in a separate Indy Arms hands-on course\, Tactical Handgun I\, II\, and III.) This course will consist of about 2 ½ hours of classroom and “dry” handling and drills\, and about 1 ½ hours of live-fire range time. The class is nominally four hours in length\, but may sometimes run a little run longer\, depending on attendance and the number of questions. \nThis class has been developed by experts on Indy Arms staff\, including nationally recognized authors and presenters\, and career firearms instructors and law-enforcement trainers. This class is taught by Indy Arms’ own female Senior Instructor: Meghan Lowery. \nThe class will include the use of a rental gun at no additional cost\, and if desired included the use of a .22 caliber handgun and 50 included rounds of .22LR rounds. Students may use their own defensive handgun and ammo. \nAmmunition for the .22 caliber firearm\, if used is included.

Tactical Rifle 1 moves beyond basic accuracy and safety to include use of force for home defense\, shooting from cover\, multiple target engagement\, and shooting and moving. The class is based on the most common self-defense rifles\, of which the AR15 platform is the overwhelmingly dominant example. The Ruger Mini-14 (based on the Garand platform) and the AK family of rifles (commonly but incorrectly referred to as the AK47) are also suitable for the class (if you are bringing a rifle other than an AR15 platform\, please inform Indy Arms when you register for the class). \nTactical Rifle 1 includes lecture\, dry fire and live-fire sessions and can be shot with both iron sights and with optics if those are available. This course will consist of about 2 hours of classroom material and practice\, and about 2 hours of live-fire range time. The class is nominally four hours in length\, but sometimes runs a bit longer\, based on student questions. \nStudents will shoot 200 rounds of ammunition. \nCourse Goal\n“To begin the structured development of the fundamental skills required to comfortably and effectively use a semi-auto rifle for home/personal defense\, and to provide the student with techniques and exercises to develop and refine these skills.” \nLessons \n\nBasic Rifle\, Home\, and Range Safety\nCommon Malfunctions\nSpeed loading\nMultiple shots and multiple targets\nMoving and scanning\nUse of cover\nReview and Questions\n\nPrerequisites: Students taking Tactical Rifle 1 should have an understanding of simple marksmanship\, and the basic operation of their rifle. Individuals taking this class should have the personal rifle that they intend to use for home/personal defense. Indy Arms Basic Defensive Rifle is an acceptable prerequisite\, as are most classes from recognized shooting schools. Experienced shooters who have not taken any formal classes should contact Indy Arms to make arrangements to drop by for a brief skills checkout. If you have any questions\, please contact Indy Arms staff. \nCourse Completion: Students will receive an Indy Arms Company certificate of attendance upon completion of the course. \nCost: $99.00 \nIncluded: \n\nPersonal Protection Equipment: Eye and Ear Rental\nTargets\n\nCustomer Responsibility/Gear: \n\nComplete Liability Waiver prior to the start of class – Click Here\nArrive at least 15 minutes prior to class for check in\nRifle\n\nAR-15 Platform chambered in .223\, 5.56\, 22LR\, or pistol calibers\nMini-14 chambered in .223 or 7.62\nAKS Platform chambered in 7.62\n\n\n200 Rounds of ammunition\, 2 magazines\, and functioning iron sights\n\nNOTES: \n\nThis class is specifically designed for the AR-15 platform.

Jeff Cooper\, the legendary founder of Gunsite Academy\, is quoted as having said\, “Owning a handgun doesn’t make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.” Although marksmanship skill is critical to the ability to use a handgun in self-defense\, marksmanship alone is not sufficient. \nThis class addresses the basic information\, skills\, and situations relating to the use of a handgun as a self-defense tool and is also taught as a Women-Only-Taught-by-a-Female-Instructor class. The class provides an overview of the legal\, psychological\, and law-enforcement response issues (These are also covered in greater depth a separate Indy Arms classroom courses; Essentials of Indiana Gun Law\, Practical and Legal Realities of Self-Defense\, and USCCA Concealed Carry) \nThis class focuses on the fundamental safety\, marksmanship and manipulation skills required to use a handgun effectively. (Carrying\, drawing\, and the associated equipment are covered in a separate Indy Arms hands-on course\, Tactical Handgun I\, II\, and III.) This course will consist of about 2 ½ hours of classroom and “dry” handling and drills\, and about 1 ½ hours of live-fire range time. The class is nominally four hours in length\, but may sometimes run a little run longer\, depending on attendance and the number of questions. \nThis class has been developed by experts on Indy Arms staff\, including nationally recognized authors and presenters\, and career firearms instructors and law-enforcement trainers. \nThe class will include the use of a rental gun at no additional cost.

A shotgun is an extremely effective\, diverse\, and psychologically intimidating self-defense weapon. But there are many misconceptions about it\, and it is sometimes as intimidating to its users as it might be to an attacker. Shotgun operating systems tend to behave differently than most other firearms\, and need to be understood and practiced. And shotguns can fire an enormously broad range of ammunition types\, not all of which are suitable in some situations. \nShotgun handling safety\, range safety\, and safe storage are addressed. We will go through the basic operating systems (pump and semi-automatic) commonly used in self-defense shotguns. We will practice basic handling\, operation\, loading and unloading with dummy ammunition in the classroom\, and proper mounting of the shotgun. The course concludes with live-fire session on the range\, shot at various distances and speeds\, and with different types of shotgun ammunition. \nThis course will consist of about 2 ½ hours of classroom material and practice\, and about 1 ½ hours of live-fire range time. The class is nominally four hours in length\, but sometimes runs a bit longer\, based on student questions. \nStudents will fire about 60 rounds of ammunition: 45 rounds of birdshot\, 10 buckshot\, and 5 slugs. \nCourse Goal: “To allow the student to understand the operation and appropriate use of the defensive shotgun\, and to provide information and basics that will allow the student to practice and improve those skills.” \nLessons \n\nBasic Shotgun\, Home and Range Safety\nShotgun Operating Systems.\nLoading\, Unloading\, or Changing Loads in a Shotgun\nProper Mounting and Technique for Shotgun Use\nLive Fire Range Exercises\nEquipment and Ammunition\nReview and Questions\n\nPrerequisites: None \nCourse Completion: Students will receive an Indy Arms Company certificate of attendance upon completion of the course. \nCost: $99.00 \nIncluded: \n\nPersonal Protection Equipment: Eye and Ear Rental\nTargets\n\nCustomer Responsibility/Gear: \n\nComplete Liability Waiver prior to the start of class – Click Here\nArrive at least 15 minutes prior to class for check in\nPump or Semi-Automatic Shotgun\n60 rounds of ammunition: 45 rounds of birdshot\, 10 buckshot\, and 5 slugs\n\nNOTES: \n\nIf you need a shotgun please contact the range to secure the usage of a shotgun for class; rental shotguns must use ammunition purchased from Indy Arms\nStudents may purchase ammo from Indy Arms or bring their own ammunition for use in a class as long as it adheres to Indy Arms’ ammunition policies.\nStudents under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult (ask about a youth discount for training classes)\nStudents arriving more than 10 minutes after the designated start time may not be allowed into class and will need to reschedule\n\n***Please come in 15- 20 min early to complete the necessary check in process before any training class.

The further ranges in the course of fire will challenge you to further hone your skills. \nEach league is a series of three matches conducted over a 3-month period (one match (on the second Sunday 3-6pm) a month).  Participants can shoot only on the date of match and must compete in two of the three matches of each league to qualify for placement\, plaques and prizes. \nRecent GSSF Match Results\nCompetitors may shoot ANY GLOCK pistol in the Indoor League.  There are three broad divisions; Stock (any Glock (with a 10 round or greater capacity) other than the G42 or G43 that has had no or very minimal modifications)\, Unlimited (any Glock (with a 10 round capacity) other than the G42 or G43 that has been modified)\, and Pocket (G42 or G43 with no or very minimal modifications). \n      See below link for full list of acceptable modification on stock weapons as well as modifications that result in unlimited designation. \n          GSSF Full Rules – Click Here \nCost is $20 for the first Glock (any division)\, $15 for each additional Stock or Unlimited Glock entered and $10 for each Pocket Glock (G42 or G43) entered* \n          * Price does not include any equipment or gun rental and/or ammo purchase (competitors can bring their own ammo\, eyes\, ears\, and Glocks) \nThe Lewis Prize Allocation System is used to distribute placement plaques as equitably as possible. One designated Glock per division used during 2 or more match will be considered for placement in the final results. Your two best scores of each division (one designated gun per division) during the series (of three) matches will be totaled and averaged at the end of the 3-match series. \nParticipants may shoot more than one Glock in each division.  However\, for each division ONLY your designated Glock will be placed in the rankings.  Additional Glocks shot in the same division may still be considered for the 500 or 250(Pocket GLOCK) Club awards and for additional entries into the free Glock drawing at the end of a three month (3 match) league (or to just track your monthly progress). \nPlaques are awarded to the top scoring shooter in each of the following categories at the end of each three match/month league; Class A Stock (top 33% of scores) Class B Stock (middle 33% of scores). Class C Stock (bottom 33% of scores). Junior (<18) in Stock\, Woman in Stock\, Senior (55+) in Stock\, Unlimited\, and Pocket. \nA Free Glock is given away in a lottery consisting of all shooters who shoot two of the three matches (dates) for each league. \nScoring: Course of Fire A and Pocket \nAllocate points for each shot as follows: \n\n10 points = X Ring\n10 points = 10” Ring\n8 points = 8” Ring\n5 points = any other bullet mark on the target\n\nIf a shot cuts the line\, the higher point value is given. \n\nThere is a maximum of 500 points.\nWhen scoring Course of Fire Pocket GLOCK there is a maximum of 250 points\n\nWinners will be posted on the GSSF website at www.gssfonline.com under the Indoor League tab and in The Glock Report \n  \n2019 Regular Dates:\nMark you Calendars!
