COURSE INFO:
1-Day Class | 9am – 7pm
(view available classes below)
MCOLES
(this course has been registered with MCOLES for use of PA 302 Law Enforcement Distribution funds and earns training credit within MITN)
PRE-REQUISITES:
Although not required, we highly recommend taking our YSINTG! (You Suck! It’s Not the Gun!®) course PRIOR to this classs. All students should be able to shoot the YSINTG target at 10 yards, zero time limit, firing 10 rounds, with the goal of keeping all rounds in the center of the black dot. To make sure students get the most out of time training with MDFI, students that cannot keep all 10 rounds on the target at the prescribed distance should take YSINTG! first.
Valid CPL or Law Enforcement Credentials (if you do not have either, email us for instructions).
Must have working operational knowledge of the firearm you bring to class (i.e know how to load/unload safely).
MUST KNOW, UNDERSTAND AND APPLY THE FOUR LIFE RULES OF RESPONSIBLE FIREARMS HANDLING AT ALL TIMES. See video below.
DESCRIPTION:
Class Flow: MODERATE (students can expect full day of shooting and weapon manipulation from a static line).
Foundation Handgun is designed to stress the importance of proper weapon manipulation and shooting techniques. The goal of this MDFI Foundation class is to build a strong and efficient foundation regarding the proper use and manipulation of the Handgun as a defensive tool. Without a strong foundation, any additional training is wasted time. This class will prepare students for our “Advanced” level classes and is a mandatory prerequisite to move on with the MDFI curriculum.
This class is for students who understand the fundamentals of marksmanship, live by the four rules of responsible firearms handling, and are looking to learn to use the handgun as a defensive tool.
TOPICS COVERED:
- In-depth Firearms Responsibility (safety) and Medical Briefing
- Inspection and Inventory
- Concealment Issues
- Carry/Draw Techniques
- Shooting Techniques
- The Threat Engagement Process
- Handgun Manipulation
- Ammunition Management
- Stoppage/Malfunction Issues
- MDFI Foundation Handgun Qualifier
STUDENT REQUIREMENTS:
REQUIRED:
- Handgun – we highly recommend you train with your carry handgun.
- 250 – 400 Rounds of Ammunition
- 3 Magazines – you may want more if you magazine capacity is 10 or less.
- Quality Holster & Belt – Handgun holsters MUST meet the criteria as outlined in the MDFI gear policies and MUST be used IN CONJUNCTION WITH A BELT (see policies). Failure to bring proper gear to class will result in the student not being able to train with their firearm and forfeit tuition.

Excellent class. This class is a must for all responsible gun owners. Each drill had a specific purpose which is very important in the era of expensive ammo. Do you need to be "Johnny Operator" to take this class? Nope. The goal of this class is to open your mind to improving your gun handling skill set. You will leave the class knowing what you need to work on to improve your performance. Great instructors!!!!

Yet another great class offered by the folks at MDFI! Between the weather and other factors, not everything went as a "perfect day". However, the team always finds ways to keep instruction moving along while still providing an environment for safety and learning. They hold to their high (yet attainable) standards and call us all up to them. Thanks so much!

This was my first time taking a class without Trek as one of the instructors and i was so impressed by the cadre immediately. They pushed my accuracy standard up and made you feel as if you were having private instruction with 19 of your best friends by the end. You won't be disappointed!

Foundation Handgun should be a required course for anyone looking to become a responsible armed citizen. This course builds off of YSINTG and really helped me become confident with my firearm. We were given plenty of opportunities to fine-tune our skills throughout the various workshops. Tim, Grant, and Thomas were very accommodating to the students, focused strongly on safety as usual, and made the class a very fun and fulfilling experience. This will likely become a repeatable course for me in the future. A fantastic course for those that want to knock the rust off as well. Great class. Can't recommend this course and MDFI enough.

I was very impressed and satisfied with the safety aspect of this course and it’s instructors. Safety was a top priority. The curriculum was very useful and I learned even more skills that I can add to my so called “tool kit”.
