[CVRC] Handgun Training

[Dick Flanagan]

Anyone interested in the handgun training being offered by CVRC member Dan 
Linn KD7DJV in the current issue of the CVRC newsletter?

If you've ever considered applying for your CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon) 
permit or even just wanted to learn to shoot handguns, Dan is offering all 
CVRC members and spouses the same course he teaches monthly through Douglas 
County Parks and Recreation at the reduced price of $50.00 (normally $100.00).

Centered around personal protection, this course is a great learning course 
for beginners and a great refresher course for those with experience. Using 
PowerPoint, video and hands-on training, this course teaches handgun and 
ammunition selection, stances, safety and the proper way to shoot a 
handgun, as well as Nevada laws pertaining to firearms.

Successful participants will receive a certificate of completion which is 
accepted by the State of Nevada for application for CCW permits.

Participants will need one or two handguns, 150 rounds of factory 
ammunition for the first one and one hundred rounds for the second (no 
reloads, please). Hearing and eye protection is mandatory.

There will be a written test which will be completed at home and a 
qualification shoot will conclude the class. Qualification will be at the 
Douglas County Shooting range.

There are 6-7 hours of classroom time and 5-6 hours of range time. A 
typical schedule for these courses is Saturday and Sunday at the Civil Air 
Patrol building at Douglas Airport. Classes run from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 
Noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday and from 8:30 a.m. until 
finished on Sunday at the range.

No experience is needed for this class; just a handgun and a desire to 
learn to use it properly. If Dan finds there is sufficient interest, he 
will schedule a special class just for us.

This class is being offered at half-price by and for CVRC members.  For 
information contact Dan Linn KD7DJV at (775) 267-4198 (epiplayer@aol.com).

Dan has already scheduled two new classes: one running Saturday and Sunday, 
November 2-3, and another running Wednesday and Friday evening, November 6 
and 8, with Saturday morning at the range.

I think I will attend the evenings and Saturday class on November 
6-8-9.  Anyone care to join me??

73, Dick
