ONE ON ONE Basic Handgun Course

One-on-One Basic Handgun Fundamentals This private, one-on-one course is designed for first-time shooters, new handgun owners, or anyone who wants personalized instruction in firearm safety, handgun operation, and basic marksmanship. Students will work directly with a USCCA Certified Instructor at a comfortable pace. Instruction is tailored to the student’s experience level, firearm, physical abilities, and individual training goals. The private format allows students to ask questions freely, receive immediate feedback, and spend additional time developing any skills that need improvement. No previous firearm or shooting experience is required. Classroom instruction will cover: * The fundamental rules of firearm safety * Handgun parts, functions, and operation * Safe loading and unloading procedures * Proper firearm storage and transportation * Selecting a handgun that properly fits the shooter * Responsible firearm ownership * Basic personal-protection considerations During the live-fire portion, students will receive hands-on instruction covering: * Proper shooting stance * Building a safe and effective grip * Sight alignment and sight picture * Trigger control and follow-through * Safe loading and unloading * Verifying firearm condition * Recoil management * Accuracy and confidence-building drills Students are encouraged to bring their own handgun if they have one, but firearm ownership is not required to attend. **Firearms will be available to rent for students who need one or who would like to try different handgun options. Students requesting a rental firearm should contact the instructor before class to reserve one and confirm ammunition requirements.** Students who successfully complete the classroom instruction and live-fire portion will receive a **certificate of completion** documenting their training. By the end of the course, students should have a solid understanding of handgun safety, operation, and basic marksmanship. They should also leave with greater confidence handling and shooting a handgun safely and responsibly. This course provides a strong foundation for concealed-carry, defensive-pistol, and advanced handgun training.
