Firearm: Bring a handgun with at least a 3″ barrel. Most shooters cannot shoot a gun with a 2″ barrel accurately at moderate self-defense distances. If you will be using a semi-auto, bring at least one extra magazine. If you will be using a revolver, bring at least one speed loader. You will need a holster.
If you will be using a revolver you will have to shoot it in double action mode.
I do not allow single action only revolvers.
If you want to use a semi-auto which has a 1911 type operating system, be very sure you can use this gun safely.
Ammunition: You should use a self-defense caliber such as a 38 special, 9 mm, or 45 ACP. (380 is OK, but some “authorities” do not recommend it as a self-defense round.).
Magazines or Speed Loaders: Some exercises require shooting twelve rounds.
Holster
- Must be a strong-side hip holster worn inside or outside the waist-band.
- Competition holsters, particularly those that do not cover the trigger guard or require an operation with the trigger finger, are not allowed.
- Holster with or without a safety-straps allowed.
- Holster must be capable of holding the handgun securely while the operator moves.
- Holster must prevent the trigger finger from entering the trigger guard.
- A quality leather or synthetic holster molded to the exact gun shape is recommended.
- Blackhawk “Serpa” holsters that require depressing a release with the trigger finger are not allowed.
Concealment garment
- Most of the shooting exercises start with a loaded handgun in a holster under a concealment garment.
- Bring a garment you can be sweep aside. This should be a jacket or vest with an open front, not a light-weight shirts or pull-up cover garment.
Bring lunch and snacks.You will enjoy having lunch with the other students.
PLEASE DO NOT BRING LOADED GUNS OR LIVE AMMUNITION INTO THE CLASS-ROOM.
Please call or write to me if you have any questions.
