Students will bring their own firearms and ammunition or rent one of ours for an additional $10 fee (plus ammunition cost). Target, eye and ear protection are supplied.

Pistol Fundamentals is a class designed for individuals who are already familiar with the basics of loading and firing a semi automatic handgun.

Students will learn how to identify and remedy pistol malfunctions and other stoppages, learn reloading techniques, master fundamentals both on the line and with dry fire practice, control recoil, and learn the basics of holster types and holster techniques.
