Anyone who wants to compete in IPSC matches must first pass the SURT, the safety and rules test. In one-on-one training we prepare you specifically for it: safe gun handling under time pressure, starting from the ready position, loading and magazine handling, moving with the firearm and the key rules. For handgun and long gun.

Tailor-made training
Private Performance Training centers on one focus – yours. Three typical topics:
Whether for hunting or club disciplines: we strengthen the fundamentals that decide safety and hits with a handgun. Stance, grip, sight alignment and trigger control, safe loading and unloading, and clearing malfunctions. That’s how you build routine and confidence with your firearm.
You choose the firearm and the focus. We train every procedure around shooting, including loading, magazine changes and malfunction clearing – at your own pace, until every move is second nature.
