Pistols Part 1- Operation
Be present at 8:45, stay until 1PM (Part 1) or until 5PM (Parts 1 & 2)
Pre-Registration Required by 5 days prior to class!
Register on website w/$10 deposit, balance in cash at class.
OPERATION: Safety, Firing and SHOPPING! (repeat free for life) is primarily pistol and revolver safety, understanding the meanings of "mm", "cal", "gr", etc., identifying and operating handgun parts and describing differences in types. You will safely pick up and physically clear and operate a variety of handguns to establish preferences. You will master the proper grip of a pistol, understand the biomechanics of the grip, stock angles and limpwristing. You will identify your dominant eye and understand the relationship of sight alignment and sight picture while coordinating stance and breathing with the proper trigger press. You will master "trigger reset" during "dry practice." By the end of the class, you will accurately fire laser cartridges from a REAL gun, safely handle a pistol, and intelligently shop for one.
No experience required.
Bring lunch, snacks, drinks & Safety Glasses.
Pistols Part 2- Shooting
Tuition was covered under your Pistols Part One tuition.
Must Register for class date on website.
See Dates, Times, Locations on CLASSES and CLASSIFIEDS Page
(Can schedule more for group requests of 8 or more)
SHOOTING: Confidence and Control! (repeat free for life) will find you safely learning the five-count presentation from the holster, then firing from that position. You will safely load / unload magazines and practice both tactical and emergency magazine reloads. You will learn the components of a cartridge, identify which loads will produce more recoil, and which guns will minimize recoil. Today's session will clearly indicate your mastery of the breath, grip, sight and trigger techniques. By the end of the class, you will be accurately firing non-lethal ammunition into the vital areas of a human silhouette target, and be awarded Marksmanship Status - or it's FREE. This class will qualify you for the Course Certificate of Completion needed for your standard Concealed Carry Permit!
PISTOLS: Part One is REQUIRED prior to this session.
Bring lunch, snacks, drinks, Safety Glasses and belted pants for holster.
Optional: Bring your own cased pistol, extra magazines, holster, NO Ammo
NOTE: WHY you train here with Laser Cartridges (not Laser Sights) in REAL Guns:
Expensive, toxic-lead "Live Fire" ammo with full noise and recoil will cause any student to flinch, and miss the target. You won't know if that's the cause, or if you need to fine-tune your Stance, Grip, Sight Alignment, Trigger Press, or what. By taking Noise and Recoil out of the equation, you can perfect these skills while developing "muscle memory." PLUS, you'll be able to shoot 6,000 laser "shots" for the same price as 50 lead bullets . . . right in your home!
There are dozens of ranges and hundreds of range masters who are happy to breeze you through a "live fire" shooting, but I've yet to meet another Certified Instructor who will dedicate a full day to actually train you to Shoot . . . with a Money Back Guarantee!
Register FIVE days before Class to avoid class cancellation!
