Announcing another NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting class. The class is scheduled to start at 8:00 AM and run through about 5:30 PM. Depending upon how long the live-fire portion takes, we may go past the 5:30 end time — or we may end early!
- Cost goes towards snacks, lunch, use of our facilities, and NRA course materials. All proceeds go to the Linn County Izaak Walton chapter.
- If you own your own handgun, please bring it. You will need about 200 rounds of ammunition for the live-fire exercise.
- If you don't have a handgun yet, we will have a few available for use during the class.
- Upon completion, each student receives a certificate of completion which can be taken to your local sheriff's office to apply for an Iowa Concealed Carry permit.
- This class covers revolvers and semi-automatic pistols, their care, safe handling, safe storage, ammunition construction/operation, handgun operation and selection, as well as firearm maintenance.
- NO LIVE AMMUNITION IS ALLOWED IN THE CLASSROOM.
- At check-in, any firearms brought will be checked to verify they are unloaded. All ammunition will be collected and stored in our safe until needed.
Please pre-register no later than May 21st, 2025.
