Force on Force Scenario Based Training

Force on Force training is training that is as true to life as possible.  You, the student, will be subjected to three realistic scenarios and you will observe nine more scenarios as the other students go through their own real life situations.  We use state of the art Force on Force training equipment and ammunition; we use the Simunition FX Training System.  The Simunition FX Training System uses guns that look, feel, and operate like the real McCoy.

 FX Marking Cartridges are fired out of specialized shell casings that allow only FX ammo and no real ammo to be used in the training guns.   HARD TARGET is one of the very first civilian training companies to be onboard with Simunition.  Simunition previously didn't allow civilians to be trained with their equipment, but recently they started a new civilian training program.  HARD TARGET has been selected as one of those companies to be certified by Simunition.  This is a real feather in our cap!

The FX Marking Cartridges are traveling at 360+ feet per second when they leave the muzzle and they are capable of 3 ½ inch maximum spread accuracy at 25 feet.  Simunition provides the most realistic close-range training system in the world.  Simunition offers the total training system with cartridges, conversion kits for guns, protective equipment, training courses, and instructor training.  Simunition conversion kits and ammo are high quality, reliable, easy to use, and world renowned.

The “impact awareness” delivered by FX cartridges contributes to the realism of FX interactive training.  In our increasingly violent world, realistic training can mean the difference between life and death.  Our Force on Force training is designed to prepare the student with quality, reality-based training using the FX Training System. This system allows the students to train in Force on Force exercises against living, breathing, motivated human beings who can actually shoot back!  The more Force on Force training you do, the more you become inoculated against stress.  Read about "stress inoculation" in the Mind Set - Part 1 commentary located under the“Tactical & Safety Info” section of the “Company” drop down menu above.  This stuff really works.  The United States Armed Forces and law enforcement agencies around the world use Force on Force training to prepare their people for those ugly deadly force encounters.  Let us prepare you!

Students are required to wear long pants, a long sleeve shirt, a baseball cap, and an athletic cup (men & women).  Women will be provided with the front panel of body armor to protect the breasts from bruising.  HARD TARGET will supply a safety helmet, throat protector, the training weapons, FX marking cartridges, and certified instructors.  Students will need to wear pants with a belt and women will need to bring an old (empty) purse to put the gun in.
