I had owned a pistol for some time and had been shooting most of my life. I'd even taught my son. I was looking forward to a week in Arizona, if nothing else to get away from winter. The class started slowly with basic gun handling, reloading and discipline - taught me a lot. From that base we started serious target shooting, everything from a draw. Over the whole week, the timing was getting shorter and you are forced to get faster. Then we moved into the shoot houses and desert draws shooting steel - absolutely awesome. They bill this class as the 'beginner' class. It is nothing of the sort! In one week, about 50 hours of classroom and live-fire, everyone leaves with better skills than most people who carry firearms for a living.

About Gunsite
Gunsite offers firearm training to elite military personnel, law enforcement officers and free citizens of the US. We knowledgeable Americans take our rights very seriously, and the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States guarantees each citizen the right to keep and bear arms. However, with each right comes an equal responsibility to discharge that right effectively, legally, safely and within the bounds of morality. Rights demand responsibility. Owning a piano does not make one a pianist any more than owning a handgun makes one a good shooter. Only an effective, safe and authoritative program of study can guarantee that in a moment of danger YOU will act to protect yourself, your loved ones or the ones you are sworn to with self defense firearms training skills.
