Also known as our Beginners class, this class focuses on teaching the less experienced students all about guns. You learn how to safely handle guns, make sure they’re unloaded and how to work a gun. We cover shooting fundamentals and answer any gun questions. This class has been a huge success, especially for first-time shooters. A great class to work your way up to our concealed carry class.
