About This Course

This course is for the woman who is unfamiliar with firearms procedures, or needs to develop safe firearm-handling and a solid foundation of shooting skills. Each student will learn the basic fundamentals of shooting and how they apply to accuracy.

The student will be shown and then practice the movement for drawing the firearm from the holster to presentation, including from concealment. This small class has a maximum student-to-instructor ratio of 6:1, making it easier for women to discuss concerns about various topics such as hand strength, style of handgun, safe carry and storage of a pistol.
