Our NRA First Steps Pistol Orientation class is brought to you by a team of NRA Certified Instructor volunteers. They come from many different backgrounds with a wide variety of experience, and are ready to share the benefits of that experience with you.

​​

The class goal is to provide beginning / intermediate shooters with an introduction / review of the knowledge, skills and attitude necessary to own and use a  semi-automatic pistol safely. 

​

After completion of the NRA First Steps Pistol Orientation, students will be able to:

​

• Handle a firearm safely at all times, both on and off the range. This includes safely unloading and loading the firearm, safely shooting the firearm, and safely cleaning the firearm.

​​

• Know the fundamentals of aiming their firearm and be able to place 5 shots within a 9 inch diameter at a distance of 15 feet.

​

• Make the necessary sight adjustments to "zero" their firearm.

​

These classes are presented in the spirit of carrying on the 150 year tradition of teaching firearm safety and marksmanship to law abiding citizens, the NRA way.

​

Firearms & ammo provided. You may bring your own semi-automatic firearm if you own one, and your own ammo.
