Handgun 101 focuses on gaining familiarity with your equipment and efficiency in getting first round hits on your target.
Grip, Stance, Sight Picture, Sight Alignment, and Trigger Control are reviewed in depth. Presentation from the holster and the ready position are performed with target engagement out to 15+ yards. Other areas discussed include the Use of Deadly Force and the Law, Color Code of Mental Awareness, ammunition choice and more.
Course Duration: Half day
Prerequisite Class(s): None. Recommended: First Shots and/or NRA Basic Pistol or equivalent and/or Draw From the Holster Class.
Equipment:
Please bring a handgun in a caliber larger than .22 (examples: 9mm, .380 ACP, 10mm, .38 Special, .40 S&W, .45 ACP). The firearm should be a typical carry/defensive size (compact or full-size). Do not bring tiny pocket pistols (pocket/subcompact design like the Ruger LCP, Kel-Tec P-3AT, North American Arms mini revolvers, etc.). We will inspect every firearm on arrival and confirm it is safe to use.
Your handgun must be carried in a functional waist-worn holster (outside-the-waistband or inside-the-waistband on the belt). The holster must fully cover the trigger, securely retain the firearm, and allow safe re-holstering. Pocket, ankle, shoulder, purse, or soft/unsecured holsters are NOT acceptable. If you are brand new to shooting, please use a hip carry holster for this class.
Bring at least 2 -3 magazines (or speed loaders for revolvers if you have them), and factory-loaded ammunition for the caliber you bring — check your registration details for exact ammo needs - (100-150 rounds for a half day class, and 200-250 rounds for full day classes).
If you don’t own a suitable handgun or holster, contact us before class — limited rental options may be available.
Eye/Ear protection (we recommend electronic ear protection so you can hear instruction AND for carjacking classes, both ear plugs and ear muffs for shooting from inside the car), Baseball or similar cap, Sunscreen, Bug spray, Water/sports drinks, Lunch/snacks and any other personal comfort items you may need.
(NOTE: If there are any questions regarding your equipment, please contact Gary at 912-667-5667 for clarification.)
