There are many folks
who wish to become firearms owners and shooters but may not have the faintest
idea where to start. This course is intended to accommodate you. You will
receive a six to eight hour class in basic firearms instruction. We will
discuss and handle the most commonly used pistols, revolvers, shotguns and
rifles with an emphasis on safe operation and use.
Q - What handguns will we shoot?
A – I strongly believe that success leads to confidence, which leads to more success which leads to more confidence. You will start your firearms experience with the 22 caliber Ruger Mark II pistol and the Charter Arms Pathfinder 22 caliber revolver. 50 rounds of ammunition is supplied. These handguns are easy to shoot due to the low felt recoil and low noise level. I believe it is much easier to learn to shoot a handgun when you don’t dread pulling the trigger.
Q - What other guns will we shoot?
A –You will be offered several choices, as a minimum you will be offered a 22 caliber rifle with 50 rounds of ammunition, and a 20 gauge shotgun with 5 rounds of ammunition. Other guns will be available for a small fee plus the cost of ammunition.
Q – Can I bring my own gun?
A – Yes. You will be afforded the opportunity to use your own firearms after class. Please leave your firearm in your vehicle,unless expressly asked to bring it in the classroom. If you desire personal instruction, a fee of $20 per hour applies. I can also supply firearms and ammunition; fees will depend on what you choose to shoot.

This selection will expose you to a wide variety of firearms. You will start off with the 22 Long Rifle - very mild noise and recoil. You will work your way up the bone shaking, thunder of the 44 Magnum and the 12 gauge shotgun. The total cost of this particular class is $125.
This can be customized to your needs or wants and the cost adjusted accordingly.
Have you always wanted to shoot a Mosin Nagant, M1 Garand, M1 Carbine, HK 91 or 94, German, Turkish, or Chilean Mauser? Would you prefer to shoot a German Makarov, Polish PA 63, Yugoslavian T53 or Czech CZ 82? Want something you don’t see? Want to shoot more rounds of one and less of another? Want to just shoot handguns? Just Rifles? Just shotguns? Some combination of the aforementioned? Want to work with YOUR pistol only? You can do that. We will work together to put YOUR package together.
All I require is that we have a minimum of 3 participants. I will gladly bring this course to your home. After the classroom portion we will travel to one of my ranges. If you have a safe place to shoot on or near your premises we will go there instead.
WE WILL NOT SHOOT AT A PUBLIC RANGE. - NO EXCEPTIONS.
