Basic Handgun Safety & Training Course

YOU MUST BE 21 TO ENROLL IN THIS CLASS. The instructor will begin the class explaining ten of the most important safety rules one will need for basic gun safety. The laws pertaining to where and when a person can carry and when a person can and cannot use a weapon will also be included. The instructor will cover the basic steps of using firearms correctly, and students will participate in practical demonstrations in the classroom. Participants will then travel on their own to the shooting range location.  After arriving at the range, all range rules and live fire exercises will be covered. At this time, the  instructor will teach proper sight alignment, trigger pull, stance, breathing, and grip. Once students have finished at the shooting range they will break for lunch and then return to the classroom at UNG for additional instruction.
