Handgun Training for Canon City Area Gun Owners

You don’t need to be applying for a concealed handgun permit to take firearms training.

Many people buy a handgun and quickly discover that owning a firearm and knowing how to safely operate one are two different things. That’s where good instruction starts.

Our handgun training can help you learn:

• The fundamental rules of firearm safety
• How your handgun operates
• Safe loading and unloading
• How to properly clear and verify a firearm
• Grip, stance, sight alignment and trigger control
• Safe gun handling at home and on the range
• Basic live-fire shooting skills
• How to practice safely and effectively after class

Handgun Fundamentals Training

If you’ve recently purchased your first handgun—or you’re considering buying one—you don’t need to already know how to shoot before coming to us.

Our Handgun Fundamentals training is designed to build a solid foundation before worrying about speed, advanced shooting techniques, or concealed carry.

Students learn how their handgun functions, how to safely load and unload it, proper gun handling, shooting fundamentals, and the skills they should continue practicing after class.

Your carry gun isn’t necessarily the gun you should learn on. Small defensive handguns can be easy to conceal, but they are often more difficult for a beginning shooter to operate and shoot well.

Learn to Shoot a Handgun

Maybe you’ve never fired a handgun. Maybe someone showed you how to shoot years ago but you never received formal instruction. Or perhaps you own a firearm but simply aren’t comfortable handling it.

Those are common reasons people come to us for training.

Our Learn to Shoot handgun training focuses on safe gun handling first and shooting skills second.

Confidence with a firearm should come from knowing what you’re doing—not simply firing more ammunition.

Revolver Training for Canon City Area Shooters

Revolvers are often described as simple firearms, but shooting and handling one well still requires proper instruction.

Have Gun Will Train Colorado offers revolver training covering safe operation, loading and unloading, ammunition, shooting fundamentals, and the important differences between revolvers and semi-automatic pistols.

Revolver instruction can be particularly useful if you inherited a revolver, purchased one for home defense, carry a small defensive revolver, or simply want to become more proficient with one.

Live-Fire Handgun Training

Reading about shooting and actually shooting are two different things.

When appropriate for the class, students receive hands-on and live-fire instruction so an instructor can identify problems with grip, trigger control, sighting, firearm operation, and other shooting fundamentals.

The objective isn’t simply to put holes in a target. It’s to understand why you hit or miss and what you need to practice next.

Students who want additional practice can also use the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Shooting Range Finder to locate public shooting opportunities throughout Colorado.

Gun Safety Training for New Gun Owners

A new firearm often comes with an owner’s manual, but an owner’s manual isn’t the same thing as professional instruction.

We work with students who want to understand the firearm they already own, including how to safely handle it, operate its controls, load and unload it, verify that it is unloaded, and use it safely on the range.

If you’re unsure which type of training is appropriate for your experience level, call us. We’ll help you determine where to start.
