increase a shooters ability to shoot fast and accurately. Instructors: Sgt. Richard Verdi is a 17 year police veteran and serves as a Patrol Supervisor Rangemaster for his agency.

| Course Descriptions: Despite
it’s tremendous utility value, the police shotgun remains an
underutilized and misunderstood tool. Many of the negative attitudes
relative to the shotgun stem from improper training and as a result,
officers never develop confidence in this particular weapon system.
This 4 hour block of instruction will focus on the use of the shotgun
as a fighting tool, with particular emphasis on reduced light
operation. The shotgun enjoys greater hit potential than with the
service handgun, however this will only be realized with proper
training. Instructor: Capt. Mike Boyle is the Training Administrator for his department as well as a staff instructor and Range Master at the Division of Criminal Justice Academy. He also serves on the IALEFI® Board of Directors where he chairs the Regional Training Committee. Mike contributed the chapter on Police Shotgun to the book “Total Survival”.
