Course Summary

The Sage Dynamics RDS Handgun Instructor course identifies and fills a training need for the instructional gap in fundamental differences between teaching traditional iron sight handgun and a Minatare Red Dot Sight (MRDS) equipped carry or duty weapon. Due to the increasing popularity and adoption of MRDS handguns, existing training programs, policies and regular training and practice must meet the needs presented by the MRDS handgun. This course instructs the instructor on the technology, concepts, principles and methodology best suited for teaching the MRDS platform to experienced or novice shooters, and is specifically tailored to the audience, be it citizen, law enforcement, or military to address specific needs in student development. Students can expect an immersive class covering the academic and actionable aspects of the MRDS, as well as a two-day drill and scenario course of fire that will cover the most important points of instruction for students.

Course Requirements

Students are expected to currently serve as a firearms instructor or have an above average firearms proficiency on the handgun. Students will be expected to pass a written exam on day one, and a culmination qualification on day three in order to receive a completion certificate.
