Description

All classes can be scheduled upon request.

This class is for the CCW holder or the person that wants to Constitutional Carry but still sees the need for training. We review the basics of pistol shooting, gun types, loading, unloading and ammuntion types. We cover front sight focused shooting and combat focus shooting. We will spend most our time on grip, sights and proper trigger management. You will learn to work from a holster.  We will cover reloads and basic malfunctions. This is not a Defensive Pistol course.
