The ATOA is hosting Applied Concepts Training for a 2-day low light course.

This two-day course trains officers in practical low-light tactics and application of both weapon-mounted and
handheld illumination. Emphasis is placed on safe, efficient use of light to identify threats, manage target
discrimination, retain weapon control, and deliver accurate, timely effects in realistic low-light scenarios.

As always this class is FREE to all ATOA and GTOA members and lunch will be provided both days.

Signups are live!

Our first iteration of our intermediate night vision class went great! Students were able to hit the range running due to attending our basic class already.
Thanks to the class sponsor, Red Clover Coffee for sending jitter juice which Orange Beach Police Department got ahold of. We also gave away some prizes from jb Squared and DarkWing TECH.
