Basic Handgun Course – Bakersfield

In this course we cover in lecture; firearm safety, nomenclature, Load/unload/chamber checks, and marksmanship. In the range students undergo both dry practice and live fire exercises. Students start with some classic bulls-eye target shooting to help build marksmanship skills and from there we introduce some defensive handgun shooting as well.
