Took my HG01 ("Handgun 1" - CCW certification) class yesterday with Weaponcraft in Portland. Had an awesome time! Highly recommend it to anyone looking to get some instruction or qualify for their concealed carry permit.
The class was 8hrs long with a couple of short breaks; after some classroom, safe handling and dry-fire instruction, we went through 300 rounds of ammo on the range. They took us through everything from basic skills to point-shooting to some basic combat drills. I've been around weapons my entire life - started hunting when I was 11, go through a couple thousand rounds of 5.56 every year these days. While I can strip/clean/shoot a pistol, this class began correcting everything I was doing wrong when it came to my skill set with a handgun. The instructors were all ex-mil/SWAT/SRT guys, thoroughly professional and extremely good at what they do. Going to go back this summer for HG02. |
