Can You Pass The FBI Shotgun Qualification Course?

About this video

Colion documents his experience running through the FBI shotgun qualification course with Broadus Defense instructors. He breaks down each of the four stages (shooting from 50, 25, 15, and 7 yards with slugs and buckshot), explains the time limits and requirements, and reflects on his performance, noting windage issues he had to compensate for and praising the Benelli M4’s smooth loading and recoil management.

Key takeaways

• Colion teaches that the FBI shotgun qualification course provides a good baseline metric for testing different shotgun manipulation skills across multiple distances and time constraints
• Colion emphasizes the importance of proper zero setup, explaining how his slightly off windage caused him to favor right at longer distances until he compensated by holding left
• Colion points out that the course’s time limits are forgiving on paper but perception of time speeds up under pressure, and that equipment choice (like the Benelli M4’s smooth loading mechanism) can significantly affect performance under stress
