BEGINNER CLASSES

Introduction to Semi-Auto Handguns — 4 hours $150

This is the place for individuals with little or no handgun experience to start; it’s also a great class for those who have learned informally from a friend or family member. We equip everyone with a Smith & Wesson .380 EZ semi-auto pistol and provide the ammo, rental electronic earmuffs, and eye protection.

Even if you already have a gun and have done a little shooting, our common training platform including an easy-to-operate firearm will ensure that you are focused on learning safety and shooting fundamentals rather than wrestling with your gun during the class.

You’ll spend about 2 hours in the classroom learning the fundamentals; the rest of the time is spent on the range practicing safe methods for loading and unloading, and live-fire exercises on the shooting fundamentals.

Our class is limited to 10 students to ensure a low student-teacher ratio and close, personal attention.
Register today to ensure your seat!

Class price includes:

  • S&W M&P .380 EZ firearm rental
    (if you would like to learn to shoot a revolver, please call us about scheduling a private lesson)
  • Up to 100 rounds of .380 range ammo
  • Rental electronic hearing protection and shooting glasses
  • Targets
  • Range and classroom time
  • NRA/USCCA-Certified Instructor and Range Safety Officers

INTERMEDIATE CLASSES

Arizona CWP – 8 hours over 2 days $160

Arizona allows its citizens to carry a concealed weapon without training. However, you will want to know the current laws and requirements regarding concealed carry, self-defense, and also learn the skills needed to draw a firearm from concealment, assess the situation, and if necessary, shoot with accuracy. You get 4 hours of classroom time on the first day and 4 hours of live fire drills on the second day. You will receive 2 fingerprint cards and an application packet to simply drop in the mail.

PREREQUISITES: Students must be proficient, safe, and practiced within the last month. If you are unsure about your readiness, ask the Range Officer to evaluate you during your next practice.

ADVANCED CLASSES

Advanced Skill Builder 2hrs $75

Focusing on techniques and drills one can practice on their own, Skill Builder topics are intended to provide shooters with more advanced skills to protect themselves and loved ones in defensive shooting encounters.

PREREQUISITE: You must have had formal holster draw training AND be vetted by our staff; ask our range officer to evaluate you at no additional charge during a range practice. Once vetted, have the certification noted on your customer account; now you can sign up for any Skill Builder classes!
