Firearm Foundations/ Level 1.5

Only $60.  For this class, you must pay in advance with a credit card.  Unpaid orders for seating will not be honored. Our Firearm Fundamentals 1.5  is the next class you’ll want to take after our Firearm Foundations 1.0 or Firearm Foundations 1.0: Ladies Only class.  We have developed this class just for you! You will need to bring your personal handgun.  We recommend using the handgun you expect to use for self-defense or for target-shooting purposes; in other words, the gun with which you want to get better!  Expect a lot more trigger time under supervised instruction.  We do limit class size so that the instructors can devote individual attention to help you improve your gun handling and gain confidence in shooting your handgun. If you do not yet have your own handgun, rental handguns are available for a $10 fee from our range desk, but you’ll be better served by learning with the gun you expect to carry or shoot on a regular basis. Our Firearm Fundamentals class focuses on building your skills with: –A quick review of safety rules and storage; –Getting you more comfortable with handling, operating, and shooting your own handgun; –Improving your aim and getting shots to hit where you expect; –Smoother trigger operation and more trigger time with instructor oversight; –Understanding reloading with simple magazine changes (for pistols) or speedloaders (for revolvers). All in a safe and fun environment!  AS MENTIONED ABOVE, BRING YOUR PERSONAL HANDGUN TO THIS CLASS! With our instructors’ experience in teaching and hands-on training, you can be confident that the training you’ll receive is among the best in the industry. Materials required: 1) You will need to bring your own handgun (UNLOADED) AND two (2) unloaded magazines (if pistol). For revolver, bring at least one (1) speed loader. We recommend a semiautomatic pistol chambered in the calibers of either 22 LR, 32 ACP, 380 ACP,  30 Super Carry, or 9 mm (larger calibers are fine if you can shoot them effectively), or a revolver chambered in the calibers of 22 LR, 22 WMR (Win. Magnum Rimfire), 32 H&R, 327 Federal Magnum, 9mm, or 38 SPL (larger calibers are ok if you can shoot them effectively).  Please note!  Unlike our Intro classes, you must be able to load your magazines yourself.  A magazine loader such as an Uplula loader can greatly help you load your magazines easier and faster!  We strongly recommend getting one of these before the class.  Magazine loaders are available for purchase in our retail store.  Some guns do come with a magazine loader when purchased new, if so please bring it. 2) Plan on shooting a minimum of 100 rounds of range ammunition (FMJ) for your handgun.  Ammunition can be purchased from our range desk at competitive prices. 3) We recommend that you bring your own eye and ear protection–electronic shooting muffs are preferred.  Electronic hearing protection is very reasonable to purchase these days and you’ll have a better experience.
