Default Basic Handgun Class

My wife and I attended Greg's Basic Handgun Class today. We both had a blast. If you have not been on a range in a while, heck, even if you have, it is worth attending this training. All the instructors were very helpful. How often to you fire 250 rounds in one day?

How often do you shoot 250 rounds and meet a man named Booger?

I think I have taken the basic class 4 hmmmm maybe 5 times!! Such a blast!!!! (also taken intermediate and advanced twice oh shotgun)

I am not sure if Greg will give me a trophy when I hit class number 10. Serious this is my method of bringing new shooters to the sport/cause. I have NEVER had a first timer be disappointed in their experience at CCWInstructor's basic class. This goes from my 11 year old daughter (at the time), 30 year old sister, to my 70 year old step dad and I of course have tons of fun every time!

I have to join Rond4x4 and all the others to add my accolades to Greg and his crew. I attended the Basic Handgun Course today, best $70 bucks I ever spent! Sorry guys and gal instructors, but I forgot your screen names 'cause I was focused on other things, but my hat's off to you all! Job well done.

My friend and his wife took the class yesterday, too. They called me in the evening and both LOVED it. Both are fairly new to firearms and shooting so I am very happy they attended. They will sign up for the next class soon.
Thanks Greg, Julie and everybody else who helped out at the range for taking good care of them.

Greg's classes look real reasonable and the range has ammo? at a good price. I have read the descriptions of the class online but was looking for someone to give details about the class if they could.

Greg provides either or both ammo and loaner gun if needed. You might call ahead if you need either, just to be on the safe side.

I asked this on another thread but I'll ask it hear too in case. I have read the class description on the web page, but would love to hear someone first hand account with details. What you did what you learned.

Signed up for the class on the 24th, BUT, who knows what's going to happen with this weather or if the road will even be open and passable...Hope it is. I'm relaly looking forward to it, as everyone has said great things about Greg and staff that do these classes. Hopefully everything will be great, and I can give a rave review as well, as I'm taking this as a refresher and skill builder with a new gun that I haven't used, and have to do my NRA Instructor Class and Cert on Feb 20th with it...GRRRR..Stupid weather...Come on Sunshine!!

I just lost the crutches today so now it is time to hit the range with Greg. Hope there is some space available in some upcoming classes. Also hope the road to Burro is open with all this weather we're getting. Maybe I'll see ya there Mike.
