This is the NRA course designed to develop the knowledge skills and attitude to safely and effectively handle a handgun.
Students learn NRA’s rules for safe gun handling; pistol parts and operation; ammunition; shooting fundamentals; range rules; shooting from the bench rest position, and two handed standing positions; cleaning the pistol; and continued opportunities for skill development.
We will take the time to allow you to learn the proper way to get started with your handgun. This is a great class for new gun owners or for people who will be living in a household with handguns.
