NRA Basic Pistol shooting fundamentals

 The NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting is intended for all individuals regardless of previous shooting experience or NRA-affiliation and is available for delivery in two ways. One option is the traditional, instructor-led course where you will receive direct instruction from an NRA-certified instructor from beginning to end. The other option has two components: a self-study or “eLearning module” which is completed online in your own time frame and a hands-on practical portion conducted in a classroom and shooting range with an Instructor.  The online coupled with range time is referred to as the blended course.  The classic instructor training course is a full day and includes firearm safety, function, basic fundamentals of shooting and a live fire component.  A NRA basic pistol certification will be issued after successful completion of the course, including a 90% score on the written test.  Many states accept the NRA basic pistol course as proof of training for concealed carry so if you are interested in concealed carry, this is a good place to start.

Topics that will be covered in the NRA Basic Pistol Certification class:

• Firearm Safety
• Pistol Mechanisms of Operation
• Fundamentals of Pistol Shooting
• Pistol Maintenance, Selection and Use
• 
  

  The NRA Basic Pistol class is the cornerstone of all my Handgun classes.  For new shooters, we highly recommend taking the NRA basic pistol class first and then the South Carolina Concealed Weapons Permit class. shooting fundamentals Columbia
