Instructing in the Use of the Combative Handgun
Lt. Dave Spaulding, (ret) – Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office

Course Description:  Many firearms instructors can lecture on handgun topics when following a lesson plan, but lack the skill required to motivate a group of experienced police officers to change their attitude and move to the next level of performance.  This course will emphasize the importance of moving the student from the fundamentals of shooting to emphasizing the dynamics involved in “Combative Handgun” skills.

Emphasis will be placed on the proper instruction of these methods as well as building the instructor’s skill level so that they become confident enough to demonstrate proper techniques enabling the student to develop proper modeling methods.  Diagnosing shooting problems will also be covered.

Instructors Instructor Dave Spaulding recently retired as a Lieutenant from the Montgomery County Sheriff’s office after 28 years of service.  He worked on all facets of law enforcement including corrections, patrol, investigations, SWAT, undercover operations and training.  He is the author of two books titled Defensive Living and Handgun Combatives.
