Rifle Skill Builder 1
Much like our Pistol Skill Builder 1 class, this course is a basic introduction to rifles, covering semi-automatic rifles and carbines, common types of ammunition, and the fundamentals of marksmanship.
Our instructors will explain all parts and functionality of a rifle. Students will learn proper terminology, nomenclature and the fundamentals of Platform, Grip, Sights and Trigger.
After a brief classroom instruction, students will hit the range and begin taking part in some basic rifle shooting drills, all done under the supervision of one of our FTS instructors. After the range portion, we will go back in the classroom to cover maintenance and recommendations.
This is the perfect class for new rifle shooters, or for the individual that hasn’t shot their rifle in some time, and wants to get reacquainted with proper shooting skills. If you are interested in eventually taking one of our more advanced tactical rifle courses, this is where you start.
After completion of the class, students will be able to load a magazine and apply the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship and be able to zero a rifle at 25 yards.
