Introduction to Red Dot Pistols

Description

This class will introduce students to running a red/green dot on their handgun. The most helpful aspect of this class is that students will learn how to properly manage recoil to present accurate follow-up shots and easier dot acquisition. One of the biggest issues with running a dot is the acquisition of the dot on the draw. This class will help relieve some of those issues, test your skills, and prepare you for defensive situations with a red dot pistol. We will also talk about how your body works, how to stand with your firearm, and different ways to grip your firearm.
