FULCRUM TACTICAL: Tactical Training

Fulcrum Tactical was founded in 2009.  They were formed with the objective of giving high quality tactical training to law enforcement agencies at an affordable price.  The affordable pricing allows them to provide this training to many departments that otherwise might not have been able to afford it.  The amazing training services of Fulcrum Tactical are utilized by large departments (such as Chicago SWAT) and small departments with less than fifteen officers.

The training given by Fulcrum Tactical all takes place at their training facility in Mt. Carroll, Illinois.  This facility is encompassed on a 129-acre property and includes a 600-yard rifle range, four 50-yard pistol ranges, a live-fire shoot house, a force-on-force scenario house, a four-story rappel tower and a zip-line.  It has everything your department needs to learn the skills required to be a Tier 1 Tactical Response Team!

There are multiple training options available at Fulcrum Tactical.  The Basics Course is a weekend training seminar.  The departments are then able to focus on:

• Personal/Home Defense - This includes live-fire range exercises, home defense, personal defense, and multiple force-on-force defense tactics.
• Team Building Platforms - This training utilizes the woodland challenge, hostile takeover challenges, and combined arms exercises to assist in the development of continuity and cohesiveness among the members of your training group.
• Leadership Skills - Training in this area is focused on gaining confidence, team-building principles, effective communication, critical thinking and other skills that are necessary to be a quality leader.
• The Fulcrum Warrior - This final training is a culmination of other Fulcrum training seminars and utilizes combined weapons and physical skills.

 Fulcrum Tactical is reopening their training facility in March, where they will have multiple Advanced SWAT courses available.  To receive more information regarding training or to schedule a training, contact Fulcrum Training.

Tachyon: Tough Tactical Cameras

Tachyon, Inc. are the leading manufacturers of tough tactical cameras. Cameras are not only tough, but cost-efficient.  They are all built with the needs and budgets of law enforcement in mind.  

All cameras from Tachyon, Inc. are wide-angle, date & Time-stamped HD videos.  These have numerous benefits for your department:

• Increased Professionalism - Knowing that their actions can easily be reviewed because they were recorded, officers tend to be more likely to strictly adhere to the rules and regulations set forth by their department.  No one wants to be the spoof video of what not to do used in training classes.
• Training - As just mentioned, those videos of what to do and what no to do come from somewhere.  And there is no better way to teach new officers how to appropriately approach and interact with a subject than actual footage that shows what can happen in the field.
• Officer Safety - Officer safety is two-fold.  By recording incidents as they occur, officers are protected against false claims of overly-assertive force or even abuse.  The cameras also record assaults taken against police officers.  

There are night vision cameras with invisible IR light that are also must-have gear for tactical units, Four-hour plus video recording time and a rechargeable battery meets every policeman's need. 

The Dash Cam plugs into the cruiser's 12V outlet, ensuring that the camera never run out of power. Compatible with 64GB memory cards, you can save up 20 hours of video before they begin to overwrite older footage.
