YOUR FORTIS FUNDAMENTALS
YOU’VE STARTED.
NOW KEEP BUILDING.
Your next two lessons are ready below.
Take your time with them. These are simple skills — but they form the base for everything that follows.
YOU’VE STARTED.
FREE LESSON 02
TRIGGER
CONTROL
A good sight picture can still be ruined by a poor trigger press.
Trigger control is about pressing the trigger without disturbing the alignment you’ve already created.
It sounds simple. Doing it consistently takes practice.
Don’t chase speed yet.
Build consistency first. Speed comes later.
Build consistency first. Speed comes later.
FREE LESSON 03
SIGHT
ALIGNMENT
Understand what you need to see to consistently put rounds where you want them.
Your grip, trigger control and sight alignment now work together.
That gives you something important:
A FOUNDATION.
Now we can start asking more of it.
Now we can start asking more of it.
THE NEXT QUESTION
YOU CAN SHOOT.
NOW WHAT?
Good fundamentals matter.
But training doesn’t stop when you can perform them on a comfortable range under predictable conditions.
As your ability improves, your training should start asking more of you.
This is where the Fortis Progression begins.
THE FORTIS PROGRESSION
YOUR TRAINING SHOULD
PROGRESS AS YOU PROGRESS.
At FORTIS, the objective isn’t to keep adding more and more techniques.
First, we build strong fundamentals.
Then, as you improve, we start changing the conditions in which you have to use them.
Movement. Low light. Malfunctions. Different environments. Decisions. Physical demands. Eventually, greater pressure.
The fundamentals remain.
The problem changes.
“What matters is what you can still do when everything stops going according to plan.”
HOW IT WORKS
WE DON’T KEEP CHANGING THE SKILLS.
WE KEEP CHANGING THE PROBLEM.
First, we build the fundamentals.
Then we start changing the conditions in which you need to use them.
01
BUILD
Develop strong fundamentals under controlled conditions.
02
APPLY
Use those skills in more realistic situations and environments.
03
ADAPT
Introduce new problems, uncertainty, movement and increasing demands.
04
RETAIN
Keep the fundamentals working when conditions stop being comfortable.

THE FLAGSHIP PROGRAMME
LONE
OPERATOR
Lone Operator is not a separate training company.
It is the flagship long-term training programme of FORTIS Pro Active Defence.
It takes the same philosophy you’ve just experienced — strong fundamentals first — and progressively develops the student over time.
As the student improves, the training changes.
Night work. Movement. Vehicles. Malfunctions. Decisions. Physical demands. Greater complexity. More pressure.
Not all at once.
Progressively.
