Additional Notes from Your Instructor
Students should bring the gun they intend to carry, and 50 rounds of ammo. Each student's gun and ammunition should be kept in their vehicle until arrival at the range. Each gun will be checked prior to removal from the vehicle. If possible, students should practice with either a B27 target or a 20"x24" piece of cardboard used as a target at distances of 3,5,10, and 15 yards.
