… An NRA Basic Pistol Shooting course was just what we needed.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Liberty Defense pistol training course…

More than I expected. Even before the actual shooting it was explained why I was not consistently hitting the target. It causes me to want to shoot correctly every time.

Lynn

Great course and instructor. It helped me become comfortable handling, shooting, and cleaning pistols.

Loved this course. The instructors are super friendly, encouraging, and very knowledgeable. I came in as a novice not knowing anything and already feel more comfortable handling a gun safely. Can’t wait to purchase my own and practice more.
