No, we will provide all guns and ammo. But you can bring your gun if you would like to learn more about it. DO NOT bring any bullets into the classroom.

Yes, we have cold drinks, snacks, coffee, and frozen sandwiches at the range for a small cost. _________________________________________________________________________________ CAN I BRING A FRIEND? I have had mothers bring their daughters and daughters bringing their mothers, a group from work, or friends come together and have a good time. _________________________________________________________________________________ WILL I ENJOY THIS CLASS? The responses have been very good. We offer a low key, enjoyable class but stress safety. It is not a macho, survival, military, hunting class, it is a basic class for beginners and we make it enjoyable. _________________________________________________________________________________ HOW MANY ROUNDS WILL I SHOOT? You will shoot anywhere from 10 to 25 rounds per gun and 10 to 14 handguns. _________________________________________________________________________________ WHAT TYPE OF GUNS WILL I SHOOT? Both revolvers and semi-autos in several calibers, from .22 all the way to .45 caliber guns. You will learn the difference between single action and double action and you will learn how to operate several different types of guns to help in your selection of your own gun. _________________________________________________________________________________ YOUR FLYER SAYS I WILL LEARN TO SHOOT A SHOTGUN. Yes, we will teach you how to shoot a pump 12 gauge shotgun. We will show you what buckshot is and the size of pattern it makes at 15 feet. Since the shotgun is the number one rated home defense gun, we feel this information is important. _________________________________________________________________________________ IS THERE AN AGE REQUIREMENT? Yes, you must be at least 18 years old or if under 18 years old, accompanied by a parent. Please include the age on your registration if under 18 years old. _________________________________________________________________________________ WHAT ARE THE TIMES FOR THE CLASS? We start at 8 a.m. and end around 2 p.m. A total of six hours. We do not officially break for lunch but there is food and drink and time for them if you desire. _________________________________________________________________________________ WHAT IF I AM AFRAID OF GUNS? That is OK. I hear that a lot and I would rather teach someone with a healthy respect for guns. Handguns have a strong psychological and physiological effect on people, that is OK. Through this course you will gain confidence in handling guns. We start with a very mild recoil in a .22 caliber handgun work up to larger calibers with more recoil when you are ready.
