FIREARMS TRAINING
Intro to Handgun
3 hours — For those who have never used a handgun before or have done it a few times but never had clear, organized instruction on how to do it safely and correctly.
This entry level course covers the basics. If you are a first-time handgun owner and unsure how to hold your gun, load your magazine, get on target and act in the range, this course is for you. We will start in the classroom covering safety, range etiquette, how to stand while shooting and how to get on target. The rest of the class will be in the range, and you will shoot up to 75 rounds of ammunition. You will not leave an expert, but you will leave with the basic knowledge so you can come to the Beginner to Handgun class and feel ready to keep up.
Parents, if you have a child that is curious about firearms, this is the perfect place to start. Come attend with them.
