The SGI Defensive Pistol Craft - DPC™ Series introduces shooters to the art of modern handgun defense.  This progressive six-part course focuses on personal safety, marksmanship, firearm manipulation, tactics, communication, and mental preparation.  Instruction in the defensive use of the handgun will be oriented toward street use by law enforcement personnel and home defense.  Students will learn how to engage assailant targets while under stress, in varying light conditions, on the move, and from different non-conventional shooting platforms.  This is a reality based training course designed to develop the student into a combat marksman, not a target shooter.

We guarantee the end result of your participation in our program will not only increase your confidence and competency levels while handling your firearm, but will also enhance your survivability during a deadly force encounter.

The SGI Defensive Pistol Craft Series is a progressive program offered in six blocks of instruction, starting with the basic fundamentals of handgun marksmanship, which is offered in the SGI Defensive Pistol Craft Series I course.  The series progressively advances to the more complex combat marksmanship skills of surgical shooting, moving, and communicating which are taught throughout the SGI Defensive Pistol Craft Series.  Each of these courses can be taken individually, or combined into a multiple day course package based on student interest and enrollment.

In addition, SGI offers the entire Defensive Pistol Craft Series to Law Enforcement, Military, and Civilians, in a group setting or private sessions for the discreet student.
