If you carry a handgun for self-defense, you owe it to yourself to understand what a real fight actually looks like. In this webinar, Ed Monk breaks down the reality of countering an active shooter from the perspective of time, environment, and human performance.

I had the pleasure to sit through one of Ed's presentations back in April and was very impressed by his use of data (gathered despite challenges and resistance) to provide insights into how we can counter these attacks and prevail when they occur. -Jacob Paulsen

You’ll learn:

👉 Who you are most likely to face in a real-world attack
👉 How the environment impacts your movement, decisions, and outcomes
👉 Why time is critical in reducing victim count
👉 The skills and performance standards that actually matter under pressure
👉 How stress (“the monkey”) affects your ability to think and act
👉 Why the handgun you carry is more than adequate when used correctly
👉 Key engagement considerations you should be training for

This is a practical, grounded look at what it takes to perform when seconds matter.
