Introduction to Handguns Class, August 19-20th
« on: July 05, 2011, 07:15:02 AM »
Precision Response Training will be holding a Introduction to Handgun class on August 19-20th.  (Friday the 19th from 6-9pm, Saturday the 20th from 8am to 5pm.)

Yes, we are holding another one for those who missed the first one, so that everyone who was interested could get a chance to take the class.  If you've never shot, or just want a refresher specific to handguns, this class will give you hands-on experience with a range of firearms.

This class is for people with little to no experience with handguns---who want to start shooting them!

The Introduction to Handgun course is a handgun familiarization course designed to teach the fundamentals of safe gun handling. By the end of the course, students will understand the basic parts, action, and manual of arms for standard semi-automatic pistols and revolvers; have practiced correct stance, grip, sighting, trigger control, and breathing; have continually demonstrated and ingrained the rules of safe gun handling; and have practiced shooting handguns on the range.

This course, among other things, includes all material from the NRA Basic Pistol curriculum, and the instructors are official NRA Pistol Instructors. Students who successfully fulfill all requirements for the NRA Basic Pistol course will receive a NRA course completion certificate in addition to the PRT course completion certificate.

Most of the range shooting will be with .22 LR pistols supplied by the instructors. We will supply all .22 ammunition. Other handguns will be available for students to try if they are interested, to give them an idea of the many types of firearms that are available. We will have revolvers capable of shooting .38 Special and .357 Magnum ammunition, along with semi-auto pistols in 9mm and .45 ACP. If you wish to try the other pistols, please note that there is a $10 additional fee to cover our ammunition costs for the centerfire pistols, which will get you approximately one magazine/cylinder of ammunition for each handgun type.

Feel free to bring extra ammunition of your own, if you wish to shoot the centerfire pistols more than that. Commercially loaded, full metal jacket only for the .45acp and the 9mm. Commercially loaded lead nose rounds for the revolvers are just fine.
