LEO/Military Magpul Class in Calif

[CAPT KIRK]

Ok guys,

We are endeavoring to get this class going at my Depts Range and it is now on the books. All we need now is to get enough people signed up.

Unfortunately because of the nature of the "Active Shooter" type training and information to be covered, along with our range use restrictions, this will be a class for LEO and Military only. Our range staff has reserved the right to make exceptions for others such as civilian RSOs for other departments, corporated reps etc, but this must be cleared through them.

Getting some positive responses on this class already fromother directions here. Anyone interested be advised, this class will have a limited capacity. I do believe this will be an awsome class, and our range facilities are very nice to boot!

If I could afford it, I'd be all over this class.

I've taken the Carbine 1 class and it was well worth it.

OK Guys... Good news...

Just got the word from our RSO...

Steel core ammo such as M855/SS109 or the Comm Block stuff for your AK's is ok to shoot. NO... I repeat NO tracer ammo tho (fire hazard and illegal in Calif.)

[CAPT KIRK]

Ok Guys,

As of today 08/31/2009 I am informed by Magpul Dynamics that only three (3) people have signed up for the class thus far. I know there are more of you than that who have expressed an interest to me via e-mail or replies on the web. If we are going to see this happen we need to get the minimum (18) signed up by 3 months prior to the class (about Nov 25,2009), otherwise Magpul will have to pull the plug on this to make the dates available for other engagements.

This will indeed be a unique training experience, so lets get it done and look forward to making many fine new friends.

Email from Jill just to clarify the sign up and payment schedule....

Hi Rob,

We're up to 6 people in the class. I was just looking at the flier and it says that 18 people need to be paid up by Nov. but maybe you want to say 18 "registered". We don't bill credit cards until 30 days prior to the class. I'd hate to be scaring people away because they think they need to have the $600 up front. Just a suggestion.

A note on Logistics......

Payment: Just a thought but if you will notice Magpul will not be charging your credit card until 30 days prior to the class (mid January). Many of you will have filed for your income tax return by the time that bill arrives, so the problem will be solve in short order.

Ammo Transport: Any of you who buy ammo after late November when the class is set in stone can have it shipped to our range and they will hold it for you. When the time comes email me and I'll get you the details. This way all you gotta haul is guns n butts.

Update 09/17/09:

The class size is building, but we still need a few more so tell your friends. This class is shaping up to have a great cross section of people from LEO (Local and Federal) as well as various Military which we will be honored to have amongst us. I anticipate this not only being a great class, but a wonderfull oportunity to network with and meet some great people. Those who miss out may very well come to regret it on several levels.

Looking forward to meeting you all..

Rob

Class size has currently grown to 11 with two more I am aware of who will be signing up which will bring us to 13. This is shaping up well and I for one am looking forward to training with this group.

Update!!!

OK Guys (LEO/MIL Gals welcome too). We are not quite there yet with sign up, however if I was one of those who wanted to do this and had not yet signed up, I'd be getting nervous about availability.

Per Magpul the MAX CLASS size is 20. Last I knew we have 11 firm signups and there are 2 comp spots going to our range for use, putting us at 13. Only 7 spots left and I am aware of at least 3 others who are going to sign up, which will leave 4 more open, so things may get tight soon.

This will not be your ordinary "Carbine 2" class and I would hate to be one of those who missed out and regretted it later. If you have signed up but have friends still on the slow train, tell them to kick it into gear.
