PLEASE, if you are new to firearms, get some proper training!!!
Ram Ringer:
Paul (phorvick),
I am a NRA ceritified instructor and would be willing to help put on some classes or even hold my own classes. Outside of work I haven't done any since I don't have a location for classes. I could probably work something out with the Ikes to use the range since I am a member, but it is my understanding that they won't let you use the clubhouse for this not to mention how much it costs to rent the club house. I could be wrong on this and Chris may have a better answer. I am certified to teach pistol, rifle, shotgun, home firearm safety, and both reloading sections. I am better with the metallic cartridge than the shotgun because I have more experience with the former than I do with the latter. I am also a certified range safety officer. If any trainers would like some help I would be willing to see what I can do.
Maybe we need to see if there are any members that have a facility to hold the classes and/or the shooting part of the classes.
Thanks Galen Truan (Ram Ringer)

Anyone out in North Platte area, for training . Trying to get my wife in a beginners class. And to be honest , I could probably go with her. I have always been around and used guns for hunting and target practice . But really don't feel comfortable trying to teach her. Thanks

I purchased my black rifle last fall and spent most of the fall and spring getting familiar with it at the Ikes range in Lincoln. Been around shot guns and hand guns for some time but not the AR platform. Last month I went to Tulsa and took a 3 day tactical rifle class at the US Shooting Academy (www.usshootingacademy.com) . This was a full three days - 8 hours per day on the range and in a shoot house. We shot from close range to 300 yards and learned the basics of tactical shooting. They have a great shooting facility and professional instructors, I think the facility is 3-4 years old. As a new shooter I have been looking for places to get good instruction and time on the range with quality instructors. Thanks to this forum, I know know of the signal88security and D-Tac for alternative training ideas. Thought you might like to know about the US Shooting Academy as well.

Thanks for the heads up, Roper. If you could, please post a detailed AAR of your course at USSA.
Here's one I did for the Signal 88 class:
