Description:
This course is the first in a series of Defensive Pistol courses. The class reemphasizes foundations of firearm handling, stance, grip, sight acquisition, trigger control, and other skills necessary to succeed in a defensive pistol encounter. The skills gained in this course are also extremely beneficial to students wishing to improve their shooting skills and manipulation of the handgun.
