Although NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting is considered a "basic" course, it has content that even a seasoned shooter can get something from. "We give the student hands on in the classroom with handguns of several types. We start by using a blue plastic gun to learn the proper fundamentals of gun handling and grip. We teach the fundamentals of pistol marksmanship in the classroom by using laser simulators so the student can practice the fundamentals we teach before we ever go to the range. This makes for a very useful class for the complete novice right up to someone who wants to brush up on some rusty skills. We take the safety very seriously, this class has a very relaxed and stress-free atmosphere, giving new students a comfortable environment to learn in. All of our new students say one of the best things about this class is how comfortable we made them feel when they were nervous. Having a female instructor present for the women in the class is an advantage for women wanting to take the class and have a woman's perspective.

By the end of this course, you will be able to: 

1. Safely handle and operate most varieties of modern handguns.

3. Be proficient in the fundamentals of pistol handling.
