Evolve Pistol 1 — Red Dot (RDS) is an entry-to-intermediate optic course that introduces students to the core functions and practical applications of pistol-mounted red dot sights while reinforcing solid fundamentals for new or experienced shooters. Built on the EP1 curriculum, this class blends new tactics and equipment-driven techniques so you can confidently index, acquire, and engage through a reflex optic under realistic training conditions. Come EVOLVE with us—train the skills you’ll need to fight and win with an RDS-equipped pistol.
The day focuses on practical, scenario-driven drills that translate to defensive and carry use: dot acquisition and indexing, speed-accuracy integration, co-witness and mounting considerations, battery and zero management, and common malfunction responses. Instruction emphasizes sighted and transitional shooting while keeping fundamentals—grip, trigger control, and sight picture—at the center of every exercise.
Class is from 9am-5pm (price includes range all range fees) – Please arrive 30 minutes early.
