About

ABOUT

At DEVEL we train the general public, law enforcement and military operators in modern urban defensive weaponscraft. We specialize in the art and science of modern uraban defensive weaponscraft, tactics and combat mindset. We use contemporary experiential educational training and coaching methods. Operators quickly comprehend and retain the training they recieve as they evolve. We conduct our range and classroom training using the latest industry practices in a safe and positive format. Novice and experienced operator alike will rapidly advance their abilities from the  information and training presented. Traditional national training organizations and their conventional target competition training regimes are often obtuse and archaic; and have stymied operators in their study of the art and science of modern defensive weaponscraft. As a result students are left confused as try to sort the differences between competition versus defensive weaponcraft methods. At DEVEL we temper these regimes with the latests advanced training methods to develop practioners into competent M-4 carbine, Glock, 870 shotgun and MP-5 operators. If you're like minded. Contact us today and train at Devel.
