This 1 Day Course (Full 8 hrs on range) is the perfect introduction for those who are beginners or newer shooters. For those who want to learn the fundamentals of safe and confident firearm handling, understanding and developing a proper civilian defensive mindset and becoming a responsible gun owner in todays world.
It All Begins and Ends with Safety...
Without that there just isn't a way to be comfortable and confident, much less enjoy the journey of learning the "how's and why's" of pistol shooting. This leads ultimately to a place of peace, knowing you have the understanding, mindset and skills with which you could defense yourself or loved ones should the need ever arise.
This 1 Day Intro to Defensive Pistol can lead seamlessly into our 3 Day Defensive Pistol Course.
What you'll learn:
- Safe firearm handling - at the beginning, end, and core of all we teach
- Fundamentals on all your gear, not just the handgun
- Practical matters of loading, holstering, sight picture, effective & simple drills, cleaning, storage and transport.
- How to take this "1 Day Intro" home, and practice a majority of what you learned "dry" (without ammunition)
- Simple live fire drills you can do yourself at your range of choice
- Your consistency builds confidence and skill
Safety first - ALWAYS
Every skill, technique and drill revolves around a civilian defensive mindset with safety at the core.
Key techniques:
- Grip and stance
- A Safe 5 Step Draw
- The Power of your "reflection" and self correcting
- The "secret" of simple drill progression
- The concept of perfect (dry) practice, everyone can do, at home, with no ammunition
This 3 Day Course will improve your defensive handgun skills beyond what you thought possible. (All 3 Days on range)
Taking multiple sessions of private lessons just can't instill what you will learn and retain during this 3 Day Pistol Course.

What you'll gain:
- Productivity you've never experienced before
- Surpass your previous skill peaks
