REACTIVE SHOOTING

During a deadly force encounter survival is based on actions and re-reactions. Reactive shooting teaches individuals to identify, track and engage moving threats at human reaction speeds.  We know that to effectively operate at these speeds is a critical foundation to survive a deadly force encounter. 

Reactive shooting is based on human reaction time. “Reaction time” by reactive shooting definition is the time it takes one’s mind to have the ability to select the proper action to a response upon recognition of a specific threat, then act upon that threat.

The average human reaction time is just under 0.25 seconds.  When training to shoot reactively we break down all our movements by time.  Using this principle a shooter has a maximum set time allowed to realistically engage a threat.

It is imperative that law enforcement officers have reality based training that requires personnel to demonstrate the ability to accurately engage multiple moving targets within realistic time periods.  How one ultimately performs under stress is the foundation of one’s reality based training and mental conditioning. 

Because most firearm training programs are based on static precision style shooting and unrealistic engagement times  most people cannot accurately deploy their firearm under severe duress during a deadly force incident.  If you look at the FBI Crime statistics, it shows that officers have a hit ratio of less than 17% when they fire their weapon in the line of duty.

Using the seven principle fundamentals of reactive shooting, officers can learn how to successfully engage  threats that are only exposed for .25 to .75 of a second from 0 to 18 yards. 

Reactive shooting teaches officers to operate within realistic time periods while accurately engaging identified threats.

Final Option offers a fully automated, computer operated, reactive steel shooting system which moves at human reaction speeds.  This enables our instructors to teach you how to identify threats and successfully engage them with extreme accuracy and speed.

With over 50+ programmed shooting drills and tests each student will learn the fundamentals of defensive shooting.  No more static training with only paper targets and unrealistic engagement times. 

Final Option uses the same reactive shooting system that elite law enforcement agencies and special operation units across the world use to train their operators.
