General safety rules and ownership principles start the class, moving into fundamentals of handgun anatomy and terminology. Then we address shooting techniques and basic ballistics for both pistols and revolvers.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, students practice with a variety of handguns. Students are welcome to bring their own gun(s) to class for practice. Vixen also provides guns, ranging from .22 caliber to .45 caliber, in both pistols and revolvers. This is held at a private indoor facility near the store, and is completed during class.
