This class is an introductory class aimed at beginner pistol shooters, those who recently purchased their first gun or are looking to purchase their first gun. The class will include one hour of instruction on gun safety in the home, what to expect at the range, how to operate and safely handle a pistol as well as proper shooting techniques. This will be followed by one hour of live fire practice. Students will bring their own firearms or rent one of ours for an additional $10 fee. Any ammo purchased and gun rental will be paid for upon arrival to the class. Please arrive by 5:15 pm for check in.
Pistol Fundamentals is a class designed for individuals who have taken either our Beginner/Introductory Pistol class or Ladies Night class before and/or are already familiar with the basics of loading and firing a semi automatic handgun. (Enrollment in previous classes first is not required but recommended if you aren’t at least somewhat familiar with the operation of your firearm)
This class will take it a step further. While not as dynamic or advanced as our Tactical Defensive Series, Pistol Fundamentals will provide students with the opportunity to learn how to better “run their gun” rather than just sending lead down range. 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.
This class is best suited for people who already have their own firearm and would like to better learn how to run it in a more realistic self defense environment. Rentals will be available for an additional $10 per student (payable upon arrival to the class) plus ammunition.
If you have any questions or would like additional information please be in touch.
Class Cost: $125 (+$10 for rental plus ammunition. 50-100 rounds recommended and two magazines.)
