Putting your knowledge into practice on the range
Suppressor education: With suppressors receiving increased attention in the news, we’re here to help you understand what they are, how they work, and the current rules and requirements surrounding ownership and use. We’ll address common misconceptions and practical considerations so you can make informed decisions.
Whether you’re exploring your first AR-15, getting more comfortable with one you already own, or curious about suppressors, join us to build your knowledge and confidence.
Included: Classroom and range instruction, targets, and eye and ear protection.
What to bring: Your AR-15 and 100–150 rounds of appropriate ammunition. Firearm rentals are available at an additional cost. If you rent a Manchester Firing Line firearm, you must purchase ammunition from us for use in that firearm. Students bringing their own firearms may bring their own ammunition.
Firearm rental and ammunition are not included in the course fee.
