Basic pistol instruction
The student learns the shooting fundamentals before we ever handle a handgun.
These are: confirming eye dominance, stance, grip, trigger finger depth and placement, trigger control, sight alignment and breath control.
We then move to actual range practice where we learn a definite order for safe gun handling skills and we never deviate from that order: gun handling, loading and chambering the first round.
We will fire 50 rounds during our hour together.
