About this Event
Women’s Intermediate Handgun
This class builds on the fundamentals taught in the Intro to Handgun course and is designed for women who want to deepen their understanding and confidence with handguns in a supportive environment.
Taught by a USCCA female firearms instructor, this course is held in a welcoming atmosphere where questions are encouraged and learning happens at your pace.
During this class, students will:
- Explore the differences between semi-automatic pistols and revolvers, including the pros and cons of each
- Learn how common firearm malfunctions occur and how to safely and effectively correct them
- Learn & practice important range commands
- Review of: Grip, stance, sight alignment, sight picture, trigger manipulation, breathing
- Apply skills through guided on-range and off-range exercises
This class includes both classroom instruction and live-fire range time, giving students the opportunity to put what they learn into practice under instructor guidance.
You will receive a copy of Women’s Handgun & Self Defense textbook to take home for reference and practice.
If you are ready to take the next step in your handgun education- you are encouraged to sign up and come out to the range with us.
What people are saying about our events:
"Sarah taught a great class on an introduction to handguns. Her explanations of guns and the emphasis on safety gave me confidence in handling handguns. She has a comfortable approach to the materials covered and worked with each of us on our stance, grip and confidence. I highly recommend this class. "
