Introduction to Revolvers
This course is designed for you to become proficient with the revolver either for sport, defensive use, or just to try one out. In this class we will cover the basics of revolver shooting (including grip and how/why it might differ from semi-auto handguns), as well as sighting systems common with the revolver. We will also cover proper cleaning techniques, common malfunctions that can happen with the revolver, and maintenance. You will have the opportunity to try out different frame sizes and calibers of revolvers.
Equipment needed
- Center fire double action or double action/single action revolver (if you already own one)
- 25 Rounds of ammunition for your revolver (if you are bringing your own)
- Eye and ear protection. Eye protection should be impact resistant.
Note – we will have revolvers for use during the class if necessary.
