NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting

The NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting Course teaches the basic knowledge, skills, and attitude for owning and operating a pistol safely. The NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting is an excellent course for the novice or beginning shooter. It is highly recommended for novice shooters that intend to qualify in the NC Concealed Carry course!

Students learn the NRA's rules for safe gun handling, pistol parts and operation, ammunition, range rules, marksmanship fundamentals, field stripping and reassembly, gun cleaning and care, and more opportunties for skill development. Students will receive a Guide to the Basics of Pistol Shooting handbook and a completion certificate upon successful completion of this course.

Instructor Led Training (ILT) is an 8 hour course with approximately 5 hours of classroom time and 3 hours on the range. All instruction is in-person with a Certified NRA Instructor. An exam will be administered and a minimum passing score of 90% is required. At the Academy of Personal Defense and Security, we provide the firearms (both revolver and semi-automatic), and the ammunition required for this course.
