CLOSE QUARTERS CLEARANCE (CQC)

CQC is often associated with military and law enforcement training but is just as applicable for civilians who want to learn how to defend themselves or their families from a home invasion. In CQC fundamentals students will learn how to move tactically in and around rooms and spaces that contain an active threat. 

Objective

VGS instructors will give examples of combat missions that changed the CQC tactics that the SEAL teams formerly used to what they use today and how these tactics translate over to civilians defending themselves in their homes. Students are supplied with ultimate training munitions blue bolts and paint ammunition for their rifles which except for live fire is the most realistic way to train in a CQC environment. 

Gear

  • AR .556 style rifle with magazines 
  • If students don’t have an AR, they will be issued Glock UTM pistols and ammunition for an additional cost of $50
  • Eye protection
  • Valid Illinois FOID card
  • For your AR, you need a standard lower and buffer assembly to be compatible with UTM bolts. (i.e. not a law tactical side folder or a JP silent capture bolt carrier)
