FIRST Steps Pistol Orientation
4 hours
Firearm Instruction, Responsibility, and Safety Training — is the NRA’s response to the American public’s need for a firearm orientation program for new purchasers.
NRA FIRST Steps Pistol is designed to provide a hands-on introduction to the safe handling and proper orientation to one specific pistol action type for classes of four or fewer students. This course is at least three hours long and includes classroom and range time learning to shoot a specific pistol action type. Students will learn the NRA’s rules for safe gun handling; the particular pistol model parts and operation; ammunition; shooting fundamentals; cleaning the pistol; and continued opportunities for skill development.
Note: this course differs from the full Basics of Pistol Shooting by limiting instruction to a single pistol type. Its advantage and disadvantage is its limited scope, which may appeal to some students who only want to learn about their new gun–not all pistols.
