Intermediate Handgun Course
This course is designed to take the shooter to the Intermediate Level of their shooting experience. There will be a brief review of all the Range Safety Rules & all the Basic Fundamentals. Then we will move on to how to clear all the different types of malfunctions and jams with a semi-automatic handgun.
This course will also introduce you to shooting while moving, from behind cover, and much more.
It will be a great training experience for the experienced shooter, and will provide a great launch pad into our KET Combat Shooting Courses that will be offered. However, this course will not be a prerequisite to train in our KET Combat Shooting Courses.
