Blackheart International Training has been providing foreign weapons training under the Mid-Atlantic Training Resources banner for many years. In addition to transitioning to the new name, they’ve also adopted a new mindset and one that makes sense.
The new 5-day Non-Standard Weapons Course combines classroom sessions with live range training. Students will be able to identify, disassemble, assemble, maintain, load/fire/reduce stoppages and safely handle various non-standard weapons, mainly orginiating from Soviet bloc countries. In addition to covering a variety of subjects such as operations and maintenance in both the theoretical and practical, students are evaluated on previous lessons to develop a building block approach to learning. Course instructors are experienced US Army Special Forces veterans with extensive knowledge of these weapons.
We use BHI’s excellent foreign weapon guides for reference material here at SSD and each student will receive the entire Non-Standard Weapon Manual Set (Soviet Bloc) in a three-ring binder as well as broken shell extractors for 7.62 x 39 and 7.62 x 54 mm and an AK sight adjustment tool. Additionally, students are lodged in their Sugar Creek Lodge facility. Naturally tuition also covers weapons use and ammunition for the course.
Check out this brochure to learn more about the training including a full listing of weapons trained and a course schedule.
