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

- 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.

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”.

Great class for those who have taken their CPL but never pressure tested the equipment they carry. Lots of information is transferred in a short time but in a way that makes it easy to absorb.

The class was awesome! The information is great and practical. I am more confident in my ability after this class. The staff is caring and spends the time you need individually to make sure you get the most out of the class. I would recommend this to both novice and experienced shooter a like.

recommended class for everyone that carries a pistol, you will not be disappointed.
The staff is bar none the best I've encountered to date, very knowledgeable and will put you together with no ego if you're struggling with any of the various drills being taught.

As an assistant principal my everyday job is to evaluate instruction and learning. Good teaching is evident and easy to spot regardless if it is in a math classroom, a PE class, or on the range in a defensive firearms course. Tim and Tom did a great job of providing thorough explanations of the curriculum and frontloading shooters with the information that they needed. They would then break it down into manageable chunks/smaller drills that would then be scaffolded into a larger drills that put all the pieces together. Tim and Tom would then model/demonstrate each drill before beginning to instruct it. They also provided great immediate feedback to shooters as they were conducting the drills, including pushing the more advanced shooters further and spending more time with novice shooters who needed the additional instruction/help. This is exactly what I would want to see when I walk into a classroom in my building. They did a great job overall and I highly recommend any class that Tim and Tom are instructing.
