  • Proper concealment of your pistol is important when moving about in public, but so is how you employ it. This 4-hour class focuses solely on the mechanics of concealed carry. We will show you a proper draw from concealment, how to get a safer, faster, and more deliberate first shot, how to move more safely with a pistol in your hand, the proper use of cover, efficiently dealing with malfunctions, and finally give you some drills to take home for use in dry firing and on the range. To be eligible for this class, you must be able to demonstrate that you have mastered the principles of safety and are a competent marksman with a pistol. There will be a practice test midway through the class and a scored test at the end. You will need 250 rounds for this class.
