Mercenary Medic

I was at a local gun store a couple of days ago and listened to some pretty terrible, fudd advice being given to a new shooter.
There was some accurate advice sprinkeled in there, too, like the importance of keeping your firearm cleaned and lubricated... then followed up with how they don't carry in a holster, just tuck it in their waist band...

So I'm probing the idea of offering a very basic, shooting fundamentals course, or maybe coaching, for new and experienced shooters. I'm not offering advanced tactics, or anything of the sort. Just very basic coaching.
• Firearm make, caliber, and ammo selection
• Grip and Stance
• Sighting and recoil control
• Holster selection
• Carry positions
• Presenting from a holster
• Maybe working up to B8 drills
• Stripping, Cleaning, Lubrication, and storage

What do yall (the general public) think about coaching?

After some time away due to ongoing family events, we hit the ground again today to start building momentum. The website www.mercenarymedic.com, while still not completed, is much closer to being fully operational (the desktop site. The mobile site is still a work in progress. We found that the main site work doesn't immediately translate over to mobile).
We have several instructors that have indicated interest in becoming part of the cadre.
Now we're actively looking to build our client base.
If you, or anyone you know is interested in First Aid, CPR, and AED training for home or the workplace, send them our way.
We also have several other classes available, and a whole catalog of training we can pull from to help meet your individual needs.
We have discounts available for churchs and other religious institutions, daycares, and K-12 schools.

We are industry professionals with experience in prehospital medicine, critical care transport, wilderness medicine, and rescue. We share a passion for passing on quality education so that you might be better prepared in the event that the unthinkable happens.
