Welcome to an incredible class filled with handgun safety, responsibility and fun! We will host the classroom time at The NFI Freedom Lab, 11091 Rhyolite Dr, Redding, CA 96003,  and then head out to the range following our class session from 1-5 PM.  This class prepares new shooters to receive their 8-hour  CCW Training Certificate or become comfortable with their firearms.

Age minimum: 13 years old.

Classroom Time:  Welcome to the NRA Basic Pistol Class.  This class is taught to hundreds of students a year in California. Students will learn about various pistol types, their operation, maintenance, ammunition fundamentals, grip, stance, aiming, trigger control, breathing, and follow-through.

Range Time: Students will also participate in live-fire exercises, learning the fundamentals of handling and shooting their firearm accurately. Although using your own firearm is highly recommended, we are happy to provide you with one to complete the training! Please let us know if you need to use a firearm for this class.  If you have your own firearm, please bring 100 cartridges to complete the class.

Ammo Packages are available during this course. Ammunition used during the course can be provided at $45 a box. California State law prohibits students from leaving the range with this ammo. All full and unused boxes will be refunded on-site. Ammo calibers available are 22LR, .40, 9MM, .45, .380 & .38 Special.  Select the ammo that applies to you when registering for the course, and it will be delivered to the student on the range, where it can be paid for with cash, check, Venmo, or Zelle. Please leave the requested caliber and number of boxes (50 cartridges in each) in the notes section.
