Frequently Asked Questions

What if I've never touched a gun before?

That's exactly who beginner courses are for. You'll start with unloaded firearms, learn the four rules of safety, proper grip and stance, and only move to live fire when you're comfortable.

What do I need to bring to a beginner class?

Nothing except yourself and a willingness to learn. Ranges typically provide loaner firearms, ammunition, and eye/ear protection for beginner courses. Check with your instructor.

How long is a typical beginner firearms class?

Most run 3–6 hours combining classroom safety instruction with hands-on range time. Some are split across two sessions.
