Tactical MedicineWith increasing frequency, police and federal law enforcement are incorporating medical support personnel on their tactical teams. Whether they are EMT’s, paramedics, nurses, or physicians, they often work in situations that can turn threatening within moments. Modern warfare, with its lack of clear lines of battle, unpredictably exposes military medical units to combat. In both civilian and military settings, these medical providers need the skills to defend themselves and their patients. Learning to care for wounded in the field, often under fire, is a skill not taught in any medical or nursing program. Decisions made under the bright lights of an Emergency Department, surrounded by unlimited support and supplies, are often the wrong ones in the combat environment. And those wrong decisions can cost lives and result in mission failure. At the Gunsite Tactical Medicine course students combine firearms training with medical treatment in all phases of tactical care, from care under fire to casualty evacuation. Live fire and force-on-force exercises with simulated patients are used to demonstrate the equipment and techniques required for this hazardous mission. Gunsite instructors with current combat and law enforcement experience use urban, rural, and low-light scenarios to drive the lessons home. This course gives the skills and confidence medics need to bring their patients home. Cost: $1798 Duration: 5 days Prerequisite: 250 & medical background Ammunition: 1100 rounds pistol, 100 rounds frangible, 60 rounds 7.62 X 39

Urban CombatUrban Combat is Gunsite’s most intensive course, intended for graduates of 250 and 223. Designed with the resurgence of small arms combat in worldwide hot spots in mind, it will refresh and refine existing skills with pistol and carbine Created to enhance small arms and tactics skills, it emphasizes the quick use of the pistol as both a primary and backup weapon in the 0 to 25 yard envelope and the 5.56 or 7.62 x 39mm carbine in the 0 to 100 yard envelope. Current experience has found that most small arms engagements occur within those distances. Urban Combat contains a half-day familiarization with a Gunsite-supplied AKM carbine; in addition, the class will also cover familiarization with the Makarov pistol, the SVD (Dragunov)/PSL sniper rifle, and the MP-5 submachine gun. A briefing on the operation and capabilities of the often-encountered RPG-7 will also be included. All of these weapons can be found worldwide, and a basic understanding of the common small arms of the opposition is essential to survival. Threats from weapons other than small arms are also covered. Subject matter experts will present an Introduction to Explosive Devices and Improvised Explosive Devices. Vehicle counter-ambush techniques and individual tactics will also be covered. The course will include 2 night shoots and extensive live-fire indoor and outdoor simulators. Urban Combat will cover these subjects with the knowledge, expertise, and depth of training that only Gunsite can provide. Cost: $1742 Duration: 5 days Prerequisite:
250 and 223
