Linden Gun Range Shooting Club
BASIC PISTOL
LGR Basic Pistol Program is designed for the student who has limited or no experience with a handgun. This Program introduces foundational shooting skills that will continue with the student through each Module. If you are currently without a firearm, we will offer you a "Try before you Buy" experience. Let LGR guide you through the process of selecting the proper tool for your needs.
The LGR Ladies Basic course will cover 3 Modules of the Basic Pistol Program in one day. It also allows you to add in a two hour Basic Handgun Maintenance class at a discounted price. The Basic Handgun Maintenance class will take you through the nomenclature, cleaning, storage (home & transport), and maintenance
of your pistol. It is the perfect way to begin the Basic Pistol Program.
