I have been using pistols, rifles, and shotguns since I was in college and I am confident with my knowledge and safety checks and routines but I have recently sparked an interest in my extended family. My uncle has bought 4 Sig Sauer handguns in differing calibers, he and his sons (ages 22 and 20) like to go shooting with me. I have noticed my uncle and my cousins are very lax in there safety proceedures. On many occasions I have had to remind them to check weapons for clear when they pick them up or take them out of storage, and I have been swept (unloaded) many of times while they are fingerfucking their Sigs. I want to either go to or have an instructor come to us that will reiterate what I have been preaching so there are no accidents while they are enjoying their newly found freedom.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where to find an instuctor that might come out to our shooting site and sit down with about 10 people and go through the life saving safety proceedures that they need to keep us alive. Or a good course somewhat close to our location in Syracuse, IN. Ft. Wayne, South Bend are all reasonable distances.
I know instructors expect to be paid but the $225 per person fee for the upcomming NRA Basic Pistol Course in Ft. Wayne is a bit steep. We have our own firearms and amunition. My unkle and cousins may not be willing to pay that and I dont want their lives taken by an ND because they are cheap asses.
Any helpful coments are much apriciated.
