    VATA Low Light Pistol
    November 7, 2015
    Price: $200* | Location: Slidell, LA | Prerequisite: Tactical Pistol Level I

    When you hear statistics like "77% of defensive shootings occur in diminished light," it should make you wonder if you are prepared to defend yourself and your loved ones when it's not sunny and beautiful outside. If you carry a gun, the chances of you having to use it lean strongly to the dark side. If you have not thought about your choice of sights, handheld versus weapon-mounted white light selection, and the proper techniques of how to use them so that you don't get shot, then this course is a must. The curriculum focuses strictly on fighting in a low- to no-light environment.

    The following topics will be covered during the course:
    Effects of darkness & light on the human eye
    Night sight selection
    White light selection and associated equipment
    Methods of carry/implementation (Harries technique, FBI technique, Surefire)
    Reloading/malfunctions with a handheld light
    Direct lighting techniques (Strobing, Sweeping)
    Indirect lighting techniques (Painting)
    Lighting in an open air environment
    Lighting in a CQB environment
    and much more!

    Ammunition Requirements: 450 rounds of pistol ammunition (approximate)

    Gear List: Pistol, holster (must be able to retain pistol with light mounted), stiff pistol belt, three magazines, magazine holders, combat hand-held light with lanyard, EXTRA BATTERIES, pistol-mounted white light, wraparound eye protection with CLEAR lenses, ear protection, water bottle, rain gear.
