Basic Handgun 101

« Back to All Courses

This course is also offered as Ladies Only


Description:

Join us as we help you conquer the foundations of handgun function and defensive use. This course is designed to be a low-pressure energetic training session that guides you through several concentrated hours of instruction, practical drills, and achievement.

We have two gifts to give through this foundational course:

Options: Though a gun would not be your first choice for defense, we want to gift you options – having the safety, proper mindset, and effective abilities with a firearm changes the way you view the world around you.

Process: Many have pulled a trigger, but they haven’t yet connected the necessary elements that create consistent accuracy. We give you a process that when followed results in repeatable accuracy and in skills usable even under extreme pressure.

Foundations, safety, platform, accuracy, function, malfunctions, reloads, state law, defense rights, and proper mindset are all topics covered in this informative foundational course. Previous handgun experience beneficial, but not required.
