It introduces the student to shooting fundamentals such as stance, grip, sight alignment and trigger control. The class concludes with a live fire exercise where the students can practice their shooting fundamentals. Firearms, ammunition, and safety equipment are provided. This course also addresses concerns specific to women such as gun sizing, the manipulation of a firearm’s components, carriage and concealment.
