Ladies Only Basic Pistol is a full-day class consisting consisting of hands-on training concluding with live-fire. This course covers everything pistols starting at square one to develop safe, responsible, and smart shooters. We offer 30+ demo firearms for all students to handle and test-fire, 2.5+ hours of range time, we keep our class sizes small to ensure personalized training.  The biggest feature of our classes is the amount of trigger time you get and how much you will actually shoot!  This isn't just a magazine or two & you're done. We know there are different training objectives of our students, our goal to identify each student's objectives so that we can fulfill that goal and provide the best introduction to the shooting sports. All experience levels welcome.  For this class we spend both time in the classroom and lots of time on the range.  This is a very hands on class, in which you will shoot multiple firearms and multiple rounds.  We strive to really give you an excellent entry-level experience with a high round count and multiple hours of range time.  We believe students learn best by getting actual practice on the range, by receiving adequate trigger time and hands on experience.  There is no replacement for hands on experience, and that's exactly what you get with us.  The ability to shoot high round count and variety in firearm platform is what sets us apart from other Firearms Training Companies.
