BASIC PISTOL 1 - HOW TO SHOOT A HANDGUN $95

Register here

BASIC - THE BEST PLACE TO START FOR ALL BUT THE MOST EXPERIENCED SHOOTERS

Duration: 3 hours classroom, 3 hours range time

Prerequisites: None

This is the class for you, if you:

• Don’t own a handgun (and even if you do)

• Have never shot a handgun

• Have shot a few times but it was years ago

• Have shot a few times but don’t feel confident

• Have never taken a shooting course or worked with a shooting Instructor

     This is the class you should take before you try to get your LTC. The Texas LTC course does not teach you how to shoot and is not appropriate for people with little or no shooting experience.

     Basic Pistol 1 has four unique features which will benefit almost everyone taking their first class, just getting started or needing a refresher on the fundamentals:

     You don’t need to own, buy or borrow anything - no gun, no personal protection equipment, no ammunition - to take this class. Everything you need (except a baseball cap) is included in the $95 price.

     The first half of this course takes place in our simulation studio - a specially equipped classroom with multiple simulation tools and setups which allow students to experience every aspect of shooting (including the feel of real pistols) in a safe, clean, quiet, air conditioned environment. You will go to the live fire range with confidence, knowing you have already mastered safe gun-handling skills and basic marksmanship.

     We start with .22LR pistols and work through a variety of drills before moving up to .380 or 9mm. The .22LR caliber has less energy and noise than larger calibers, and is perfect for proving your skills and mastering fundamentals. You will immediately feel confident on the live fire range because you will have used a simulated .22LR pistol in class.

     You will be able to choose from a variety of .380/9mm pistols when we move to the standard caliber portion of the range day. Even if you have your own standard caliber pistol you will have the option to try something different for a few rounds.

     The live fire portion of this class takes place at East Texas Rifle & Pistol Club after the completion of the classroom portion.

TOPICS COVERED

In this class, you will learn:

• The latest technologies and requirements in firearm safety, ammunition and home storage

• The fundamentals of semi-auto pistols

• The fundamentals of safe gun handling

• The basics of marksmanship, including

• How to build a strong grip

• How to build a proper stance

• Proper use of sights

• Trigger and Breath Control

• Basic manipulations of the action (slide)

• Proper Ready/Retention positions

EXPECTATIONS AND OUTCOMES

At the end of this class you will be:

• Confidently and safely shooting 4” targets at 3yd and 7 yds.

• Confidently and safely loading, unloading and clearing your handgun

• Confidently manipulating the action of your handgun

• Excited about your next trip to the range.
