JANUARY 2007 - NEWSLETTER # 07-25



 
     
TRAINING NEWS

As we move into the 2007 training season, we hit the ground running with an action packed training schedule, starting with the SHOT SHOW in Orlando, Florida next week! After a record breaking 2006 training season, with over 500 students attending over 40 of our training courses across the country, we drive on with over 50 training courses scheduled for presentation in 2007!

In an effort to answer your training requests, we have expanded our mobile training program to increase the number of training courses in various regions across the country. To accomplish this task, we have also increased our instructor staff to 10 instructors, with mobile training instructors now based in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Dallas, Texas.  

As we broaden our diversity, we will continue to maintain the level of excellence that students have come to expect and demand in courses presented by Team Spartan and the

DS Arms Law Enforcement Training Division.

I look forward to seeing you at one of the upcoming training courses or conferences.

TRAINING SCHEDULE

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Team Spartan is proud to announce the debut of 5 new training courses in 2007!

 

Team Spartan defensive tactics instructors Aaron Cunningham and Matt Little bring a series of intensity driven Defensive Duty Knife Courses to life with reality based training in the justifiable use and application of the law enforcement duty knife.

 

The Defensive Duty Knife Program is based on the internationally recognized Filipino martial art

Tacosa Serrada Eskrima, a close quarter armed combatives system that has been integrated into emergency defensive use of the law enforcement duty knife. This program also focuses on legal issues and the justifiable use of the duty knife within the continuum of force.   

   

UPCOMING COURSES

The following Team Spartan courses are scheduled for January:

UPCOMING EVENTS
 

Team Spartan and the DS Arms Law Enforcement Training Division will be on display at vendor booth # 6290 at the 2007 SHOT SHOW in Orlando, Florida, January 11th – 14th, 2007. Be sure to stop by and check out our new Spartan rifle and other new products we are releasing for 2007. See you there!

Team Spartan and the DS Arms Law Enforcement Training Division is proud to announce that we will have a vendor booth on display at the International Law Enforcement Educators and Trainers Association (ILEETA) 4th Annual Training Conference in Wheeling, Illinois April 17th – 21st, 2007.

The DS Arms Law Enforcement Training Division will also be presenting the DS Arms FAL SA58 Rifle Armorer Course and the Defensive Duty Knife Deployment Course at this year’s

conference.

These classes filled quickly last year so be sure to get your ILEETA registration in early! Last year’s conference sold out fast – and from what Ed Nowicki is saying from ILEETA, this year’s conference is going to sell out as well. We’ll see you at the conference!

Team Spartan and the NSPPL are proud to announce the return of the Illinois Police Association (IPA) combat and bullseye matches in the Chicagoland area. After a several year hiatus due to the anti-gun political agenda of the Chicago Police Department banning IPA and NRA shooting sports events at Chicago Police Department city ranges, we have been able to revive these excellent law enforcement firearms training events locally through a coordinated effort with our new host agency, the Harvey Police Department.

The following dates have been scheduled for IPA sanctioned combat and bullseye matches at

the Harvey Police Department Range in Harvey, Illinois:

Top ranking shooters for each match will receive trophies, with the overall top 20 shooters of

the year receiving the State of Illinois - Governors Twenty Award at the end of the shooting season. The 2007 IPA shooting season will conclude in October with the IPA Top Gun Match in

Pontiac, Illinois.

Team Spartan and the DS Arms Law Enforcement Training Division is proud to announce that we

will have a vendor booth on display at the National Tactical Officers Association (NTOA)

24th Annual Tactical Operations Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

September 16th – 21st, 2007.

 

The DS Arms Law Enforcement Training Division will also be presenting the

DS Arms FAL SA58 Rifle Armorer Course at this year’s conference as well as a live-fire weapons vendor demonstration of the SA58 rifle, SA58 OSW, DS-AR rifle and the Brugger & Thomet

MP9 sub-machinegun. The armorers course will fill quickly, so be sure to stop by the DS Arms

vendor booth to register. Registration will be limited to 20 students.

 

The live-fire vendor display will be open to all conference participants that are interested in

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The Police Training Institute will hold their 7th Annual Combat Challenge Match on

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007 at the Tactical Training Center in Champaign, Illinois. This

match consists of 6 challenging courses of fire that you can re-shoot as many times as you like.

Your best scores are posted for ranking in each stage for trophies and prizes and your overall combined score is used to determine the Top Gun shooter for the match. The match consists

of 4 pistol stages, 1 carbine stage and 1 shotgun stage.

The carbine, shotgun and ammunition for both long guns are provided at the match. This is

truly one of the most exciting matches I have ever shot and I guarantee that you will find these

courses of fire challenging and fun! Plan on spending the whole day shooting and socializing

with officers from other agencies at this match and bring lots of ammo!!!

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Mark your calendars – the 3rd Annual Toys for Tots Combat Challenge Match is scheduled for Saturday, October 13th, 2007 and will be hosted once again this year at the Harvey Police Department Range in Harvey, Illinois.

 

We had over 180 participants from 10 different states compete in last years match, making it

the largest match of it’s kind in the country! We are expecting over 200 shooters for this years match, and our goal is to collect 500 toys for 2007.

 

Last years event generated over 300 donated toys for the United States Marine Corps Reserves

Toys for Tots Toy Drive. We had over 70 sponsors donate 150 prizes valued at over

$15,000.00, which included 12 firearms as prizes.

 

The value of our prize table for 2007 will exceed last year’s, and we plan to have at least 15 firearms on the prize table for this year’s event! If you liked what you seen last year, this year’s event will be even bigger and better! There will be a larger vendor area, more prizes, more trophies and lots of shooting! Bring a friend and lots of toys!!!

 

In addition to running the Combat Challenge Match, we will also have several industry

sponsored side matches for participants to compete in. The matches will include:

 

  • Beretta Challenge – pistol / carbine match on steel (Beretta weapons TBA)
  • Revenge of the Pepper Poppers – pistol match (modified) vendor - TBA
  • Shotgun Run – shotgun match (modified) manufacturer of shotgun – TBA
  • Action Target - Man vs. Man Steel Challenge – pistol match on steel

If you missed the last 2 matches, you definitely don’t want to miss this year’s event! Stay tuned

for more information on this years match.
