Basic Handgun 101 — Expanded

This is the same low pressure, high energy training curriculum, with an expanded attention to detail targeting newer shooters, first time buyers, and those especially interested in home and personal defense. Training will cover safety absolutes, parts, pieces, function, platform, and state gun law during an evening session, allowing you to handle different types of handgun styles and calibers. We’ll meet the following day for an action packed range session learning basic accuracy, target acquisition, reloads, and malfunction correction, wrapping up with several engaging speed drills and familiarity exercises.

We’ll also introduce proper defensive mindset, and what it means to be a gun owner or shooter in Alaska. Each student must shoot a qualification target for course completion. This course offers a comfortable forum where specific questions are encouraged, helping you lay a strong foundation of handgun knowledge and safety. Previous handgun experience beneficial, but not required.

This course is also available as Ladies Only.

Total Course length: 6 hours
Course Cost: $185

Required:

  • 200 Rounds factory ammunition
  • Personal Firearm (if applicable, rentals available from AAAK)
  • OWB hip holster and magazine pouch (available to borrow from AAAK)

Intro To Long Range was an incredible day with an Intro To Long Range was an incredible day with an incredible crew of shooters! 

It's amazing how long the snow is hanging on, but no one complained about 65* and sunny... 1000yd success was sweet, and notable was that roughly half the class hadn't yet shot past 300yds, so the day was extra rewarding as they conquered the challenges of long range. 

At @akaccurateadvantage we have a tag it / bag it principle - impact once and that's cool, but impact three times in a row and prove you have mastered the concepts for repeatable accuracy and precision! The "Bagged It!" call was something to celebrate. 
Thanks to the shooters who gave the day to process, putting in the work to build the pillars required for long range impacts.

It's Spring Bear Training Season! We're going on t It's Spring Bear Training Season! We're going on two months now of frequent bear safety quals and have so enjoyed the time with the various teams headed to the field. 

Sharing potentially life saving information and coaching proficiency across the bear defense platforms is a passion - we hope our personal experience on this subject helps you find confidence while you're out there doing your job, keeps your team safe, and prevents the red tape of DLP, but we know your skills are honed for either outcome! 

Keep your head up, stay safe out there this season! 🐻
