What does this include? Range time, ammo, firearms rentals, etc?

I've got a couple of friends who aren't "gun people" but are interested in some basic training, for home defense and for carry.

The class runs about 8 hours and includes shooting 50 rounds at our outdoor range in Doswell. If a student has their own gun, they can use that. Otherwise, we have some loaner guns that can be used at no charge, we just ask that the students pay for the ammo.

Its a good basic introduction into gun safety, parts of the gun, etc. More info can be found here - http://proactiveshooters.com/nra-basic-pistol-shooting-class-doswell-va/

We limit it to 10 students so if they are interested, I would suggest registering quickly to get a spot. We already have 1 or 2 signed up.

Everyone should learn gun safety from some reputable source.
