Operation Specific Training is excited to announce our MOAC program to be held at SIG SAUER Academy in October.

MOAC
MOAC is a five-day, 40 hour, high round count pistol course designed to take the intermediate shooter and provide them with the tools to become an advanced or expert shooter. OpSpec Training alumni frequently request a long-duration program – building upon our flagship two-day Practical Fundamentals program – designed to enforce and develop persistent, durable skills. MOAC develops these skills through repetition and process oriented marksmanship.
MOAC – a.k.a Mother of all Classes – has an maximum enrollment of 16 students to ensure an appropriate student-to-instructor ratio. The class utilizes steel targets to maximize training time.
We have had many previous students tell us they would "totally be in for a class like this" and we do expect the program to sell out.
Prerequisites
Prior to the start of class, students should have completed OpSpec Training’s Practical Fundamentals class or have attended an equivalent trigger control-based program from another training organization within the past 36 months. If you have the training experience, solid gun-handling skills, and can draw from the holster and reliably hit an 8-inch target from 5 yards in under 1.5 seconds you meet the prerequisites for this advanced program. For those without a current prerequisite, OpSpec Training will be visiting SIG SAUER Academy on June 3 & 4 for a Practical Fundamentals class so you will have the required experience.
Course Objectives
Where:
SIG SAUER Academy
233 Exeter Road
Epping, NH 03042
Class size: Limited to 16 students.
Tuition: $999
Tuition includes free loan of firearms, holsters, safety glasses and hearing protection at the Academy. This includes the P320 and any other P-series pistol.
Ammunition: Round count will be approximately 3,000 rounds.
The Academy website mentions frangible ammunition may be required. This is NOT the case for MOAC, as we'll be shooting at an outdoor range all week.
Required Equipment
Registration and other Links
Questions concerning payments or registration should be routed through Kathleen Randolph at the Academy. She can be reached at (603) 610-3411.
Questions concerning the program can be directed to OpSpec Training through our online form, or here in the thread.
Where to Stay
SIG SAUER Academy has corporate, discounted rates at hotels in the area. (Click here and scroll to the bottom of the page for the current listing.) The Academy has rate arrangements with three local properties in Exeter, New Hampshire. Hampton Inn & Suites Exeter, Fairfield Inn & Suites Portsmouth Exeter and The Exeter Inn. To ensure you receive the arranged rate, ensure you reference "SIG SAUER Corporate Rate" when making your reservations. We suggest you make your reservations by calling the property directly.
If you are interested in sharing a room or a rental car, contact OpSpec Training after you have registered for the class, and we will provide you with the contact information of other students interested in sharing a room/car.
Food at Lunch Breaks
There is a collection of fast food restaurants (Subway, Wendy's, McDonald's, Burger King) about 2.5 miles (5 minutes) to the west near the intersection of Route 125 and Route 101. We'll also set up a team dinner on Thursday night at Telly's Restaurant & Pizzeria on Route 125, again about 5 minutes from the Academy.
* Instructors listed for specific programs have committed to teach the class on those dates. Although we do not anticipate changes, travel delays, family emergencies or illness may result in instructor substitutions.
