Basic Pistol Training Course

You might ask yourself, “What exactly is this course about?  What am I going to learn?” While we are fully proficient in the instruction manuals and NRA standard guidelines, we implemented a training model that is tailored to the individual students and class.  We do not merely repeat what is in the official course content and read everything out of a book. We address individual needs and tailor how we approach the learning experience on a case-by-case basis. We will take you to one of the outdoor firing ranges. This is where many of our students, who were new to firearms (never having shot before), have experienced a stress-free day of thrilling and pleasant learning.

In this beginners’ pistol class, we cover basic handgun safety, nomenclature, loading, and unloading, the foundational marksmanship skills (grip, stance, sight picture/alignment, trigger manipulation and follow-up), as well as reloading and practice clearing common pistol malfunctions.

If you are looking for a handgun safety class, this is your best beginner class for handling a gun safely and effectively.  This training course will teach you in all for the basics of firearms and firearm safety.  It is our goal to dispel all the myths that so often exemplifies the idea of firearm ownership today. When you finish this pistol class, you will have a detailed understanding of pistols, pistol operation and maintenance.

We will also give you a detailed understanding of the current local, state, and federal firearms laws. The most important benefits of taking this class are that the environment and our approach are proven to be very relaxed, fun, and informative. The Basic Pistol training course is the best way for new shooters to receive professional firearm training.
