AR15 Defensive Carbine: Setup and Maintenance
The AR-15 has become the most popular defensive carbine in America. The system's modularity allows it to be customized to meet the unique needs of its owner. The vast number of options and accessories available for the weapon make gear selection difficult for those new to the platform. Even those familiar with the AR-15 have a hard time keeping up with the constant stream of new products that are available. This course is designed for everyone: those shopping for their first AR-15 trying to make sense of all the acronyms and specifications, the novice looking for tips on maintenance and lubrication, and seasoned AR-15 platform veterans looking to grow their skill set as it relates to the latest gear development and rifle setup.

This course covers:
  • Field stripping, maintenance, cleaning, and proper lubrication
  • Gear selection including rifles, stocks, grips, forward grips, slings, rails, magazines, ammunition, flashlights, flashlight mounts, optics, and back up sights
  • Proper carbine setup and basic operation
Examples of specific topics covered include:
  • 1/3 versus absolute co-witness of sights
  • Advantages and disadvantages of 1, 2, and 3-point slings
  • Proper sight in distance for a defensive carbine
Note: The instructor will have an AR-15 style rifle for demonstration purposes so you do not need to bring a rifle to the workshop.



AR15 Defensive Carbine: Tactics and Techniques
This course is an intermediate level course that builds upon Precision Applications’ AR15 Defensive Carbine – Setup & Maintenance course. It covers basic tactics and techniques for deploying a carbine in a defensive scenario. Home defense scenarios will receive special attention since it is the most likely location a defensive carbine will be deployed for someone outside law enforcement or the military. The tactics and techniques covered are broad enough to apply to any defensive carbine, but heavy emphasis will be paid to the AR15 platform due to its high popularity.

Examples of topics covered include:
  • Low light and the use of flashlights
  • Malfunction clearance
  • Use of optics
  • Basics of room clearing
  • Basics of working in teams
  • Use of cover and switching shoulders
  • Transition to Secondary Weapon/Handgun
