The Gap Between Permitted and Prepared
A license shows you completed a course. It does not show that you can draw from concealment with your heart pounding, move off the line of attack, or clear a malfunction without looking at your hands. Most indoor ranges in Palm Beach County will not let you practice any of that. Level 2 runs at a private outdoor range in Boynton Beach so you can.
This is a demanding course by design. You will be moving, you will be timed, and you will make mistakes in a safe place so you do not make them later.

Why Level 2 Runs Outdoors in Boynton Beach
Almost every indoor range in Palm Beach County prohibits drawing from a holster, moving while shooting, and engaging multiple targets quickly. Those rules make sense indoors. They also mean most carriers in Delray Beach, Boca Raton, and Boynton Beach have never practiced the skills they would actually need. The private outdoor range in Boynton Beach removes those limits, under close supervision, so you can train them properly.
How Holster Work Is Taught Safely
Drawing from a holster is introduced in steps. First slowly, with an empty gun, then at speed with an empty gun, then with live fire at a measured pace. You only move to the next step when the previous one is clean. Two instructors watch the line, so nobody is rushed into speed before they are ready.
Skills You Leave With
Mechanical skills
- A clean, repeatable draw from concealment
- Reloads and malfunction clearing without looking
- Accurate shots while moving off the line
- One-handed shooting with either hand
Decision skills
- Recognizing a threat earlier
- Choosing cover over concealment
- Deciding when not to shoot
- Staying functional with your heart rate up
Is Level 2 Right for You?
If you carry, or plan to, and you have never drawn from a holster under any kind of time pressure, yes. If you are still uncomfortable handling your firearm, start with a private lesson or Level 1 first.
Common Questions
Is Level 2 safe for someone who has never drawn from a holster?
Yes, provided you have Level 1 or equivalent fundamentals. Holster work is introduced in steps, slowly at first, with the instructor watching every rep.
Where does Level 2 run?
At a private outdoor range in Boynton Beach. The location is shared once your seat is confirmed.
What if I do not have a holster yet?
Ask Mike before you buy one. A poor holster is one of the most common carry problems, and he can tell you what to look for.
Can I take Level 2 with an appendix holster?
Yes. Bring the holster and position you actually carry in. Mike will check that it is safe for the course before you start.
Reserve a Level 2 Seat
Tell Mike where you live, what you want to work on, and when you are free. He will reply personally to set up a time and a range.
