Low Light Encounters

Indy Arms’ Low Light Encounters is a two and a half hour class focused on techniques and skills to successfully use night sights and flashlights in no-light and low-light conditions. Many real-life self-dense encounters occur at night and/or in low-light conditions.  This concentrated course focuses on legal and practical issues of self-defense in less than optimal lighting allowing students to practice vital skills.

The class will consist of about 1 hours of classroom time and 1.5 hours of live-fire range time.

The class requires 50 rounds of ammunition.

Course Goal: To begin the structured development of the fundamental skills required to comfortably and effectively shoot a handgun using night sights and flashlights.
