Training class costs

[rckjeep]

I've been looking into becoming an NRA instructor. I'm wondering why the NRA charges SO much to make an ambassador for the greater good of shooting.

I found a non live fire one day class and its $275. With an ideal number of students at 10-12 that's $2750-$3200 does it really need to be that costly? Can someone please explain this to me?

$275 for a 1-day class doesn't seem market price. Prices may vary dependent on range fees but that seems high.

TJ Johnston is a NRA Master Training Counselor. His school in Orange teaches/certifies the NRA basic instructor and RSO programs. Most classes are 16 hours. His classes are $150 (plus ammo). RSO classes are $120.

Call the NRA and ask.

Sooo I sort of sent you a large rant/observation. Hope it helps.
