Fortress will be offering our 4-Hour Cold Weather Handgun Class at the St Joseph County Conservation & Sportsman’s Club, February 27th.

Ages 18, and up.

This class is reserved for those who have attended a Fortress Level I Pistol Class, a DTI Basic/Intermediate Pistol Class, or have been personally cleared by Jeff Brazo as being properly training in draw stroke and range safety.

Don’t email us asking if the Michigan or Utah or Illinois or Ugandan Concealed Carry Course you took is sufficient for attendance – It’s not.

Cost is $95 (plus $10 range fee. $105 total)

Question: Why would I want to train in the cold?

Answer: We don’t get to chose the who, what, where, when, or why of our next gunfight. We spend far too much time training in controlled climate conditions while we carry daily with layers of clothing walking through snow covered parking lots.

WE NEED TO TRAIN FOR THE CONDITIONS WE WILL FIGHT IN.
