This is NOT a basic pistol course. Students should have already attended a basic pistol course of some type, to include understanding how to safely draw from a holster.

Students will need a modern drop safe semi auto pistol, a safe holster that allows re-holstering and retains the pistol well.

Serpa holsters, soft concealed carry holsters that collapse after the gun is drawn, and Crossbreed hybrid type holsters, are not safe or suitable for the course. Outside or inside the waistband is allowed.

400 rounds of reliable ammunition. Eye and hearing protection, active hearing protection is strongly encouraged. A ball cap or other hat with a bill.

I can provide dummy rounds in .380/9mm/.40/.45acp used in some of the drills, if you are using a caliber other than these you will need to bring at least six dummy cartridges to class

There are no close by lunch options from this range. Please bring lunch/snacks/drinks/water with you. A folding chair would be a good idea as well.

The $50 range fee for this event is built in to the class tuition price. The exact range location for this private facility will be provided for registered students.
