First Steps Rifle class December 13

[Lil Stinkpot]

On December 13, from 8 am to 12 pm, the SCVRC Juniors Rifle Program is hosting another NRA First Steps class. The class will be held at the San Jose Municipal Firing Range on 10th Street. The range is small, and so class size is limited to the first ten. The class is free for juniors, for adults the fee is $45. Reservations must be received by Wednesday, December 10th.

PM me for the juniors e-mail address or with questions.

NRA FIRST Steps Rifle is designed to provide a hands-on introduction to the safe handling and proper orientation to one specific rifle action type. This course is about four hours long, and includes classroom and range time learning to shoot a specific rifle action type.

I apologize if this looks a little spammy, not my intent.

There are a couple folks that had to miss the first class, so we are holding another. There's room for plenty more, if you or a friend may be interested.

Even though this is an introductory class, there's some good information for all. I learned some stuff there while watching and helping out, and I've been shooting for almost two years now.
