Our ClasseS
Intro to Handguns
This one is definitely for beginners. This is a fast-paced 1-hour class on handguns. We begin with safety. We’ll then discuss the differences between revolvers and semi-automatics, and touch upon single-action and double-action, hammer-fired and striker-fired handguns.
We’ll go over basic handgun components, and we’ll learn how to properly grip our gun, paired with the proper stance, along with how to use the sights in anticipation for our first time on the range – which is optional after the class.
