      Must have. When I took mine the deputy running the range session started saying that it was 5 yards. Deputy Diaz corrected him and said that it was 7 yards.

      Still a distance you could hit with a good spit wad.

      Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

        My heart was racing and my hands were shaking through the first 2 of the 3 guns. I calmed down a bit for the 3rd.
        I got all my hits in the box, as expected, pulled a little low and left.

        But seriously... if you have a bayonet on your pistol, you can poke the holes into the target... you're that close
        In my class an High class chick was able to pike the holes in the target with her extended pinkie.

            Yep, definitely need to turn your safeties off on your bullets or they won't arm themselves before hitting the target!

                You aren't even allowed to shoot at a target any closer than 7 yards at "On Target" unless, I believe you are taking a CCW class.

                  Yeah I was worries when I qualified with my Smith 10. As I brought it up to the ready position the front sight snagged the target and ripped a 4 inch gash in it.

                  Just kidding.


                  Doesn't matter much 5 yrd vs 7 yrds, pretty basic shooting if you practice. Actually I accidentally double tapped going from double action to single and shot the target in the neck. Still passed.

                    By a whole 6ft....

                    At least SB doesn't qualify like Sacramento... their routine is closer to the NRA Defensive Handgun class, including failure drills, but I don't believe it is on the timer... the 10 yard runs with the timer are what most had problems with (particularly those not used to running under the clock).
                    3-5-7-10 yards and a total of 34 rounds for the actual qualification, but you need 250 for the class.

                    I have no idea if they make you do the entire course for each gun listed.

                        It is all very laid back and simple. There is plenty of time. The hit zone is marked and not scored. It was 5 yds in January of 2017. Any hits out of the zone are counted. My target had so many holes I really couldn't tell where they hit but maybe 3 and I shot 2 guns and none outside the zone. If your are in one of the first couple groups you might be able to tell but mostly I couldn't.

                            Yea, my target was pretty shot up by the time I was up to shoot. They had taken a magic marker to all the holes outside the pass zone, and luckily I didn't add anymore with my LCR.

                              I'm surprised no one here mentioned the 25 yard weak hand drills.......

                              I did the class weekend before last with a 3.3" 45 XDs and a Smith M&P 340 which is a 14 ounce 357 mag. Now for the 3-4 week wait for the permit.
