Scoped Rifle / Patrol Designated Marksman Course Yakima WA March 26 to 28
We are happy to announce our next Scoped Rifle / Patrol Designated Marksman Course run over 3 days in Yakima, WA. The course dates are March 26, 27, 28 2015
Limited to a maximum of 12 shooters
Course Description
The Patrol Designated Marksman program is designed for agencies as a way to bridge the gap between the arrival of patrol units and the deployment of SWAT, in incidents requiring a high degree of firearm precision. These circumstances include threats or use of WMD’s, active shooter, (especially at distance or in elevated positions) and emergency hostage rescue. Patrol Designated Marksmen are not “snipers,” they are on-duty patrol officers with the training, education and equipment to successfully resolve these threats rapidly if necessary, reducing the threat to innocent citizens.
