THE ISSUES OF THE C.A.R.

THE C.A.R. FIREARMS SYSTEM IS WITHOUT A DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST DYNAMIC ISSUES,THAT WILL DIRECTLY EFFECT THE WAY WE TRAIN IN THE DEFENSIVE USE OF AFIREARM, IN RELATION TO A LAW ENFORCEMENT APPLICATION. WHEN IT IS GIVENSTATE WIDE PUBLICITY THROUGH L.E.S.A.T., AND IN JANUARY OF 2004, NATIONALATTENTION WHEN THE SYSTEM IS FEATURED IN A MAJOR LAW ENFORCEMENTMAGAZINE, THERE WILL BE SOME CONTROVERSY.

THIS SYSTEM WILL, IN MANY CASES, MAKE REDUNDANT THE TRADITIONAL METHODSOF INSTRUCTION, i.e. WEAVER STANCE / ISOSCELES. THIS IN TURN MAY CAUSE MILDPANIC TO OUTRIGHT REFUSAL TO CHANGE. CERTAINLY THE OLD SCHOOL WILL BEHEARD FROM. HOWEVER, IT HAS BEEN MY EXPERIENCE, THAT ONCE ADOPTED THESYSTEM WILL GROW IN ACCEPTANCE DUE TO ITS ADVANTAGES IN THE FIELD.

I ANTICIPATE AT LEAST SOME VERY HEALTHY DEBATE ON THE VALUES OF THE SYSTEM.I HAVE TO SAY THAT I AM VERY EXCITED AT THE PROSPECT BECAUSE IT IS NOT VERYOFTEN THAT SUCH A FANTASTIC CHANGE IN FIREARMS TRAINING IS BROUGHT OUT INTOTHE ARENA SO TO SPEAK.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND THAT OF YOUR STUDENTS

THE MAIN ISSUES OF THE SYSTEM ARE :

IS IT TRAINER FRIENDLY - ONCE A STUDENT HAS BEEN TRAINED IN OTHER TECHNIQUESWEAPON RETENTION - CAN THEY GET OUR GUNCRISIS FOCAL POINT - EYE SIGHT ACCOMMODATIONBODY ERGONOMICS - EFFECTS OF CANNIBAL STRESS ON OFFICERS IN A CRISISBODY POSITIONS - REACTION / RECOIL / REFLEX UNDER STRESSBODY CONTROL - RECOVERY FROM PHYSICAL EXERTIONWEAPON NOMENCLATURE - OPERATION OF SLIDE / WEAPON CLOSER TO FACEDOES THE WEAPON FUNCTION IN A DIFFERENT MANNERWILL CANTING WEAPON CAUSE SHOT DISPLACEMENTDOES THE SYSTEM WORK UTILIZING ONLY ONE HANDDOES THE TECHNIQUE PRESENT A DANGER WHEN WORKING IN PAIRS / TEAMSSHOT AVOIDANCE - HOW DOES THE STANCE EFFECT DISTANCESTABILITY - ARE WE ABLE TO MOVE AND FIGHT WITH A WEAPON IN OUR GRASPDISTANCE SHOOTING - 25 YARDS AND OUT - HOW EFFECTIVE IS THIS STYLEHOW THE SYSTEM IS COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER TYPES OF EQUIPMENT IE O.C. / A.S.P.

ON ALL OF THE ABOVE ISSUES THE SYSTEM WILL SHOW THAT IT :

IMPROVES PERFORMANCE, REDUCES RISK,AND

AIDS THE OPERATORS ABILITIES TO FUNCTION.

C.A.R.FIREARMS TRAINING - 2005

10 POINTINSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES

SABRE TACTICAL TRAINING RESOURCE AND RESEARCH 2004


6.

TEN POINT I.O.s

Cognitive and Psychomotor

I WILL REMEMBER THAT ON EVERY CALL I ATTEND,THERE IS ALWAYS AT LEAST ONE GUN INVOLVED --- " MINE "

( Records show 63% of officers killed in the line of duty involving afirearm in 1996 were killed with their own weapon. ) The C.A.R. firearmssystem offers a previously unobtainable level of weapon retention. ForOfficers of either gender, and with various levels of Physical fitness.

INSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES

The Student will recognize that every confrontation is an armedRconfrontation with at least their weapons involvement.

The Student will demonstrate holstered and drawn weapon retentionRtechniques deployed against single and multiple Adversaries.

THE MAJORITY OF ROUNDS DISCHARGED BY POLICE / LAWENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL NATIONWIDE FAIL TO INCAPACITATE

THEIR TARGET --- " WE CANNOT AFFORD TO MISS "

The C.A.R. utilizes Personal Crisis Focus, training which is unique to eachIndividual, and builds on the Individuals personal eyesight strengths. Byteaching every Student the 'Standard Stance' we are setting them up to fail ina crisis when circumstances change from those practiced on the Academyranges. The C.A.R. will work in a crisis.


The Student will recognize and appreciate the risks involved of missingRthe Target and the consequences of failing to achieve ImmediateIncapacitation.

The Student will acquire, develop, and demonstrate during simulated fireRtheir personal Crisis Focal Point, in regard to single and multiple targets.


7.

STANDING STILL AND TRYING TO " FACE SQUARE ON " TO A TARGETWILL GET SOMEONE KILLED`--- "YOU"

Training over the years has dictated that a Student "Face Off " in front ofthe target, and at set distances. This muscle memory training has causedPersonnel to repeat this action when faced with a crisis situation. Oftenthey have been out of hard cover, or have re-positioned themselves for that" Range Shooting Stance " putting themselves in danger. The C.A.R.teaches target acquisition whilst on the move, and the abilities to engage atarget from less than optimum angles.


The Student will identify the requirements to keep moving and continue toRbe able to engage with precision and accuracy, any Hostile Threat.

The Student will practice target acquisition and engagement on the move,Rtowards cover, whilst limiting their personal Target Profile. Engagingsingle and multiple targets when a deadly force threat is presented.

WHERE THERE IS ONE SUSPECT THERE IS LIKELY TO BE TWO.

Today's societal changes have brought about increased dangers frommultiple Adversaries such as Gangs and Mobs, often Teams / Partnerswill confront Law Enforcement Personnel. Increased awareness of PoliceTactics through programs featured on the Media have enabled Criminalsto better prepare and learn Anti - Tactic tactics to be used when they areconfronted. The C.A.R. system trains Operators to deploy techniquesagainst multiple attackers quickly and very efficiently.


The Student will learn that Multiple Suspect contacts form a high numberRof violent confrontations.

The Student will adopt defensive stances against Multiple Adversaries andRinitiate gross motor actions using hands, elbows, and feet strikes.


8.

THE " 6 R's "ARE THE FOUNDING PRINCIPLES OF WEAPON PROFICIENCY.

" REACTING REDUCING RELOADINGRECOVERING RETURNING RETENTION "

The " 6 R's " when utilized through the C.A.R. system bring aboutincreased stability, and therefor offers a higher level of readiness in timesof crisis.


The Student will understand the need for, and then develop a workingRproficiency of the founding principles of the C.A.R. 6 Rs.

THE C.A.R. SYSTEM WAS DEVELOPED TO INTERACT WITH VARIOUSITEMS OF DEFENSIVE EQUIPMENT, RANGING FROM BATON,

THROUGH CHEMICAL IRRITANTS, AND FIREARMS. .

The C.A.R. system builds on the principles of Harmonious MusclePlacement, and works in harmony with the bodies natural physical design.This is in support of the physiological changes that occur to the body inmoments of extreme crisis. Once learned the responses will be instinctive,and really work when they are needed the most. This builds confidence.


The Student will identify the other Defensive Equipment they can deployRthat is compatible with this system.

The Student will demonstrate the operational proficiency of the C.A.R.Rsystem in relation to the use of Chemical Irritants, Batons, and all modesof firearm weaponry.


9.

IT IS A FACT THAT SOME OFFICERS COULD ATTAIN A HIGHER LEVELOF FITNESS - IN A FIGHT THE BAD " GUYS " WON'T CUT ANY SLACK.

No matter what level of fitness is maintained the C.A.R. system allows anindividual to utilize to their personal maximum, their bodies performance.Techniques developed also assist in returning the body to a normal level offunction after periods of extreme exertion. In addition to being able toprolong periods of physical application of the various techniques.

The Students will develop significant Body Control, to the maximumReffectiveness of their personal physical capabilities.

THE C.A.R. ALLOWS THE USE OF DEFENSIVE WEAPONS IN CONFINEDSPACES SUCH AS A PATROL CRUISER, OR WITHIN BUILDINGS.

The C.A.R. techniques train Operators how to present various weaponswithin a confined space, in addition to utilizing weapons with restrictedview, when deploying tactically wearing hard hats and respirators.


List the situations in which the C.A.R. system can be utilized effectively.RDemonstrate use of techniques from their cruisers, and in confined spaces.R

STATISTICALLY MOST OFFICERS INVOLVED IN A SHOOT -OUT DO NOTINITIALLY HAVE TO RE-LOAD. HOWEVER, THAT RELOAD IS ESSENTIALIF THERE IS A CONTINUING GUN -BATTLE, OR AN ADDITIONAL THREAT

The C.A.R. utilizes specialized reloading techniques that allows maximumspeed, balanced in harmony with tactical reloading procedures, when lownoise factors are important.


Recognize when a Weapon Reload is required to be initiated.RDemonstrate all aspects of Combat and Tactical Reloading techniquesRfrom acute body positions, in low light levels, and on the move.


10.

WHEN AN OFFICER IS " 10 - 34 " OR OTHERWISE INJUREDTHEY MUST BE ABLE TO PROTECT THEMSELVES.

The C.A.R. " S.H.O.T. " program which is an acronym for :

SINGLE HANDED OPERATING TACTICS

The system trains an Operator to utilize their defensive weaponry despitebeing injured or semi-incapacitated. This system supports whatever bodyfunctions are available to the Operator, and from various positions.


The Student will understand that most situations are Survivable despiteRserious injuries.

The Student will learn techniques that may be deployed if they areRphysically dis-advantaged during any Crisis Situation.

FORWARD

Sabre TTRR. believes that safety cannot ever be compromised.

Sabre TTRR. provides training to Law Enforcement and Specialized MilitaryUnits in the U.S.A. as well as Europe. Our training doctrines are designed topush an Individuals performance to their personal limits. We are certain thatwhen it comes down to a life or death struggle against an Adversary mistakesare unacceptable.

At or during training Students may make mistakes, they will be compelled tolearn from them. In the field, when they make a mistake they may die fromthem. Therefor we encourage whenever possible Individual Responsibility.

Our Trainers cannot be There in the field when the fight is on. Ourresponsibility is geared to better preparing the Student to be able to think forthemselves, become self reliant, and build confidence through knowledge. Weseek to teach the best training techniques currently available, and to continueto research and develop new techniques that will keep the cutting edge firmlyon the side of Law Enforcement and Military Personnel.

Sabre TTRR. is fully committed to improving Students Personal Safety. Theattitude that promotes personal safety, We believe, comes from within theIndividual. The will to win cannot be taught, it must be cultivated. We mustsow the seeds of a personal desire to win. Who dares to win, generally will.

Training concepts that make Students work hard, can be difficult to teach andultimately to achieve. As Human Beings we tend to look for short-cuts.Sabre TTRR. believes that short-cuts are simply short-falls. Our promise toeach Student is to offer a training syllabus that works in a crisis, it is notalways an easy path. We will strive to achieve those ends, and never takeleave of those responsibilities.

We know our responsibilities. You must know yours.


15.

Ultimately the first and last responsibility is yours. Your actions will dictatethe circumstances. Your tactics will either help or hinder your personalsurvival. You must take responsibility for your actions.

With these doctrines in mind we have developed a set of Range Shootingdrills, and Weapons Retention drills. These drills are taught in unison withFull Hand combat techniques, and Open Hand self defense. Precise rules oftraining have been set out within this manual of Guidance and Instruction.

These rules will be complied with at all times. There will be no exception tothese rules. They have been set in place to reduce the risks of injury toStudents, Instructors, and guest VIPs, that will from time to time, observetraining sessions.

Any Student that fails to follow Instructions, comply with Course Rules, ordisplays a counter - productive Attitude will be required to depart from theSchool. The departure from the school by a Student is not subject to appeal.

Training will always be accompanied by risk. The higher the training standardthe higher the associated risk. Therefore rules must be laid down to managethe risk level, and ensure that any risks are minimal and acceptable.

Risk Management is the Aim.Reduction of all foreseeable danger is our Mission.

VERY FEW INDIVIDUAL TITLED RESEARCH DOCUMENTS HAVE BEEN USEDIN THE COMPILATION OF THIS PROGRAM, HOWEVER, IT MUST BE STRESSEDTHAT A COMBINATION OF PEOPLE AND EXPERIENCES HAVE ALLOWED THISSYSTEM TO HAVE BEEN BORN AND TAKEN SHAPE IN ITS EXISTING FORMAT.

MUCH OF THIS TRAINING HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO OFFICIAL SECRETS &RESTRICTED DOCUMENTS AND THEREFORE NOT AVAILABLE FORPUBLICATION PURPOSES.

WITH THAT IN MIND I SHOULD LIKE TO CREDIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIESAND PEOPLE WHO HAVE UNDOUBTEDLY ASSISTED MY PERSONALDEVELOPMENT IN ORDER THAT I COULD HAVE WRITTEN THIS PROGRAM.

EVALUATION AND CRITIQUES

There is much to be learned through the techniques of Self Reflection andthe input from Peers. It is very important however that this application beutilized in a specific way, when giving to another Person your PersonalCritique.

Remember to :

EVIDENCE YOUR COMMENTS

i.e. You used 11 rounds when engaging that targetR Not : You used a lot of rounds when you just shotS

Praise where you can, and critique when you must. Take ownership of yourcomments. Use the word I not We. Do not repeat the critique ofanother Trainer / Student, as this is simply repeating and compounding for nopractical benefit to the Recipient. Never be afraid to give an honest answer,because failure to do so, simply will not help a Student develop their skills.

If an area of concern is mentioned by the Student themselves, do not repeattheir observation. Try to start on the positive points, then the areas ofdevelopment required, then end on a Positive Point.

Be aware of the levels of Critique, and select the most appropriate level toapply. When you receive a critique try to avoid justifying your actions andconcentrate on reflecting as to why the comment was given, and how you canimprove next time. Remember to thank a Student for their work or effort intothe session. Any work displayed on a chalk or dry board should be reviewed,and prior to erasure, ask the Student if it is OK to remove their work, as thereis a requirement to move onto another area.
