LMS Defense Newsletter
February 2009
  Greetings!

Welcome to the February edition of the LMS Defense Newsletter.  With the cold and wet weather I seem to fall into the trap of spending less time training and more time tending to other projects such as cleaning the garage out or organizing equipment for the upcoming good weather of spring. Many of the people that I work and train with have told me that they fall into the same trap in the winter months.

A couple of weeks ago on the LMS Defense blog, Jeremy Miller posted an excellent article about the value of a training partner.  Not only is it important to have a training partner to keep ourselves honest, but a training partner can also ensure your training dollar goes as far as possible.

We believe in the training partner concept so much, we want to help you build your team.  LMS Defense is pleased to announce our LMS Defense Economic Stimulus package.  This is a special offer allowing you to sign up and pay in full for one of our select courses, and bring your training partner to the class for free!  Take advantage of this offer for you and your training partner to train together for 1/2 price!

To take advantage of this offer, register for any one of the classes listed below before March 15th and bring your training partner for free.  When you register for the class on our website, please enter your training partner's name, address, phone and email address in the comments section of your registration.

Upcoming Class Feature

The upcoming Carbine classes start with the foundation of basic rifle marksmanship and using the rifle platform in a gunfight.  The Carbine 1 curriculum covers the zero, setup and manipulation of the rifle as well as using the rifle to effectively fight from cover and unusual positions. The learning progresses through the Carbine 2 course to include shooting on the move, transition to secondary weapons and more tools for your rifle "toolbox".  Please refer to the upcoming classes below or our online course schedule to find the class best for you.
