Civilian Pistol Courses

---

Totally new to pistols??  This course is for you.  It starts at the very beginning, teaching you Gun Safety, then progresses to how to operate a pistol safely and effectively, whether for target shooting or self-defense.  Also teaches the breakdown, cleaning, lubrication, reassembly, and function check of the pistol.

An often overlooked aspect of carrying a pistol is the holster & how to access it.  There's more involved to defending yourself when carrying a CONCEALED pistol, than just grabbing the gun and solving the problem.

 This course starts by teaching you how to run a pistol from the holster safely and effectively, then advances up to running that pistol from concealment.  A highly recommended course for CPL holders that take carrying a pistol seriously.

If you already know the basic operation of your pistol then this is your starting point.  Also known as Basic Pistol, this course starts at the beginning and provides a building block approach to get you running the pistol safely and effectively for self-defense purposes. 

Also known as Intermediate Pistol, this course starts at a level above the basics, and advances through intermediate level training.  This will take your self-defense pistol skills to a new level.

Also known as Advanced Pistol, this course starts at the Intermediate level and progresses up to an advanced level.  You will be running your self-defense pistol faster and more effectively than you knew you could.

Pistol Skills consists of numerous 2-hour blocks of training with each block covering a different topic of instruction on the semi-auto pistol.  This provides a dedicated timeframe to work on specific skills so you gain knowledge & improvement.  Think of each block of training as a "mini course."  These varying blocks of instruction can be taken in any order and can be taken individually or combined together, depending on what you want to learn/improve upon, and how long a training day you desire.

Reloading & Malfunctions

**As a side note: We usually run these courses over a given timeframe, such as one 2-hour block on the same day each week over a 2-month time period, making it convenient to get new skills/improvement without having to take time off work.  However, GSR Group will custom tailor a day of training upon request. 

Red-Dot sights for pistols are all the rage.  They have numerous advantages over iron sights, IF you're trained on how to properly use them.  Without proper training most people have trouble finding the dot quickly & consistently.  

This course will teach you how to find the dot EVERY TIME.  You'll discover that once you're consistently finding the dot, you'll be on target faster than when using iron sights and in most cases your accuracy will also improve.  Win Win!!

After this course you'll have complete confidence in your red-dot pistol and will be running it faster than ever.
