Classes and instruction range from beginner or basic level to intermediate and advanced levels to include the AK Concealed Handgun Permit (ACHP) Course. Classes are generally progressive in subject matter and skill level, meaning completion of the Basic Handgun Course (or demonstrated equivalent experience/skill) is desired and recommended in order to take the intermediate/next level course.

Classes are conducted in a very relaxed and open classroom setting where there are no dumb questions. In the Basic Handgun Course, there are some participants who have never held or fired a handgun, some only once or twice, but all wish to be more knowledgeable about firearms, how they operate and how to safely shoot and handle them. Topics include discussions on how to safely have & store firearms in the home---especially when there are children around.

Participants do not need to own a firearm for the Basic Handgun Course. The instructor will provide any firearms necessary for both the class times and for the range. No other firearms or ammunition will be allowed in the classroom or at the range. While having your own firearm for other courses is certainly desirable, handguns can be rented from RRRFI for a small fee if necessary.

Courses may be scheduled to best meet the needs & varying schedules of the students.

For example, the Basic Handgun Course is usually offered as a one day (usually on a Sat) course but could be offered as a 5 week course where students meet for 1 1/2 hours once a week in the evening, or a Friday evening and part of Saturday. Additionally, most courses may be offered as “Ladies Only” and are called “Guns & Roses I, II or III” depending on the skill level being offered.

Please Note: The classroom portion of these courses are held at Anchorage City Church, 1301 W. 100th Ave, (which is the next exit south of Dimond off MN).  Classes can also be offered at your church or organization location if desired. Call or email your desires.
