Description

THIS IS 2 COURSES IN 1 DAY for $99 + range fee.  Range Fees must be selected as an "add-on" at bottom of page. 

It is important to us that Women feel confident and competent in their shooting abilities so we designed this course to be a “no pressure” women's environment (with the exception of the instructors).

This course is designed to be a basic pistol course to walk you through the nomenclature, safety/safe handling, and fundamentals of pistol shooting.  It meets the States training objective for CCW (Title 21 Section 1290.1 et seg known as the "Oklahoma Self Defense Act), but it is that and a lot more.

I've heard of many instructors who took their CCW students to “a range” and just had them shoot at a target with little concern if the student actually hit center or not. That is not us! Here at Defensability we want you as students to be better than that.  We spend time with you at the range and we work with you one to one leaving you feeling confident and proud to be a responsible gun owner.   

We go beyond the basic required material and cover other topics such as how and where to carry your concealed firearm, holster options; selecting the right handgun, caliber selection and more.

There are no prerequisites for this course.  So, what if you have never fired a handgun before? We will give you the necessary classroom instruction and range instruction to safely complete the course.

No exceptions.  A firearm found to be unsafe will not be allowed on the range.  Other options can be explored at that time.
