The Well Armed Woman – Level 1 Training

In 2017 UTM had the opportunity to present training at TWAW Leadership Conference. This training was well received and many Chapter Leaders have requested training at their home locations.

Class offering will be a Level 1 UTM certification course. UTM non lethal training ammunition allows you create training that replicates real-life environments and scenarios and safely challenge yourself with drills and practice that cannot normally be performed on most live fire ranges.

UTM, in conjunction with The Well Armed Woman leadership, would like to gather all requests for training in 2018 in an effort appropriately schedule these classes. If you would like more information in setting up a class in your chapter, fill out the form below and we will send you resources to communicate with your members.

Realistic Firearms Training Without a Live Fire Range

The UTM system is a safe and effective training alternative to Live Fire for people of any skill level. With the use of safely converted pistols or AR-15 style rifles and UTM training ammunition, shooters experience full firearm function and realism while allowing them to train virtually anywhere, without the need for a live fire range. Our system allows you to safely convert any AR-15, as well as a variety of pistols, in seconds with no gun-smithing. The result is a gun that loads, fires, cycles and recoils like your live firearms but utilizing a low velocity, quiet target marking projectile.  While the firearm is converted, using the UTM system, it WILL NOT fire a live round, making it both safe and effective for training.  This technology was previously only available for Law Enforcement and Military personnel, but is now being offered to both instructors and responsibly armed citizens alike for the most realistic firearms practice available.

UTM Ammunition and Conversions are for:

New Shooters: Safely converting a live AR-15 or Semi-Automatic Pistol to fire only UTM is quick and easy and great for introducing beginners to both personal protection and the shooting sports without the intimidation or noise of the live fire range.

More Advanced Shooters: UTM allows you to replicate real-life environments and scenarios and safely challenge yourself with drills and practice that cannot normally be performed on most live fire ranges. Movement, 360 degree targets, utilizing cover or shooting around vehicles can now be a safe part of your realistic training sessions.

Instructors: UTM allows you to broaden your student base and expand course offerings by providing an ultra-safe and realistic training tool for your courses. You should be limited only by your imagination not by your equipment.

Topics covered in this course will include but are not limited to:

• The safe and effective use of UTM for firearms practice without a live fire range
• Introducing basic firearms manipulation and marksmanship to new shooters using UTM without the risks of live fire
• Correcting “training-scars” created by the linear, live fire range
• How to safely develop realistic and interactive self-defense training in simulated real world environments using UTM (Carbine and Pistol)
• Incorporating practical self-defense firearms skills into training including movement, reloads, shooting from seated position, decision making, shooting around cover and more

Gear Requirements (provided by student):

• Eye protection
• Comfortable clothing and footwear

UTM will provide ammunition and converted firearms.

Note: This LEVEL course will not require force-on-force.
