Everyone has to start somewhere. If you’ve just purchased your first gun or haven’t touched your gun in awhile, that somewhere is here. By the end of this course, you will learn:

Basic firearm SAFETY

Safe HANDLING

You will also learn to employ the THREE PILLARS OF SHOOTING:

GRIP: how to build it properly using structure instead of strength

SIGHTS: how to present the gun and align your sights while remaining target-focused

TRIGGER: how to activate it without moving the gun

You will also learn how to DRAW your gun from an unconcealed OWB (OUTSIDE THE WAISTBAND) holster. Finally, you will leave with a sense of how to sharpen these skills through DRYFIRE

One semi-automatic handgun

At least two magazines (three or more recommended)

One OWB (outside the waistband) holster that secures to your belt (kydex only; no leather, nylon, or SERPA holsters)

Magazine holster (optional, but recommended)
