An expanded version of the NRA Basic Pistol course, designed to teach the basic knowledge, skills, and attitude for owning and using a pistol safely. Extra non-NRA material will meet the training requirements for an Ohio Concealed Handgun License.
Students will study from the NRA's "The Basics of Pistol Shooting" handbook with intensive lessons in safety, gun handling, the various types of pistols, the fundamentals of pistol marksmanship, various pistol firing positions, several practical exercises on the firing range, cleaning, storage, and a summary of pistol sports and activities.
Students will receive feedback on the live-fire exercise and a course certificate upon successful completion of the lessons. There is a short written test on the lesson material.
Student certificates include an instructor's statement verifying the course meets the training requirements for Ohio's Concealed Handgun License.
