What You'll Learn

AR15-style rifles or carbines introduce a new level of complexity compared to handguns. This course includes operation of the moving parts, field stripping, cleaning, and maintenance, along with basic marksmanship fundamentals.

We begin in the classroom with a brief overview of the AR15 platform and its history and parts. From there we take it to the rifle range and shoot. We then return to the classroom for a detailed cleaning session.

Cancellation Policy: If you don’t show up for a class without a cancellation notice at least 7 days in advance, 100% of the fee is due. We do allow students to move to other class dates without penalty.

What We'll Teach

AR-15 Fundamentals
