This course starts where our permit to carry course leaves off. This course is designed to build a solid base of fundamental skills, novice and experienced shooters will walk away a better shooter. The handgun is primarily a defensive weapon. Small and easy to conceal, it is often the first choice when selecting a firearm for self defense. The handgun is the most difficult to master in comparison to a shoulder weapon like the shotgun or carbine/rifle. If you are going to be relying on a handgun for self-defense, then you better be able to use it properly. Our emphasis is to introduce solid fundamentals, and hone the skills necessary to properly use the revolver and semi-automatic handgun in a self-defense situation.
