The NRA Basics of Pistol Class is a great way to be introduced to the handgun. Starting from scratch each portion covers everything from cartridges, types of pistols, safe handling, care and cleaning, to basic marksmanship. Choosing the Instructor Led option gets you in class with an instructor for this comprehensive 8 hour course. Some of us just don't have 8 hours in day to devote to learning about the firearm known as the Pistol. The NRA has come up with an online learning course to allow you become more knowledgeable regarding pistols on your own time frame. The Online Basics of Pistol Class is a great foundation, but as Colorado does not recognize any online classes as a qualifying Colorado Concealed Handgun Permit class. So if you have taken the Online Basics of Pistol course, or wish too, you must complete a Blended ILT (Instructor Led Training) with an in person instructor so that they can attest to your proficiency in handling a pistol. After completing the instructor led portion, your training in now recognized by every county in Colorado as valid for obtaining your CHP. If you sign up for your online course through us we can ease the transition into the live class not only will it save you $20, but we can assist you with any questions you may want to ask during your online study. All the convenience of online study , but with the added value of a private instructor.  And when you are ready to attend the Blended ILT we will already have your information and course code set up in the system. No experience needed. Contact us today so we can assign you your course code, and you can begin your online training.

 A $20 non-refundable deposit is required to hold a place in class (We will roll your deposit over to another class if needed), and is deducted from the remainder of the course fee.  This includes the range use fee to the range at the time of the class.
