"These classes will be unique in that they will feature a nationally-broadcast series of lectures and discussions with students," said Pincus. "I will be based in Gander Mountain Academy's flagship facility in Florida, and we will broadcast the lectures out to five other academy locations around the country."
Pincus and staff from the Lake Mary, FL, academy will run the class, while instructors from the academies in DeForest, WI, La Crosse, WI, Lakeville, MN, Spring, TX and Wichita, KS, will be in the classes and on the ranges at all locations to supplement Pincus' instruction with hands-on learning. Among the topics covered in the six-hour class are:

"I'm really excited about this course," Pincus said. "It's going to bring all of the dynamic, practical, reality-based techniques that we teach people all over the world. It's for people interested in learning how to use their firearm to protect themselves or others in a worst-case scenario. Along with qualified instructors, I'll be delivering that information at amazing Gander Mountain Academy facilities."
