CLASS CURRICULUM Thank you for your interest in taking the NRA basic pistol class at the MSI Range. This course fulfills all the requirements for the Connecticut State Pistol Permit. We strive to instruct each student individually to handle a variety of handguns with confidence and safety; even if you’ve never handled a firearm before. We use the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Course materials and curriculum that teaches the basic knowledge, skills and attitude for owning and operating a pistol safely. We use three firearms for the live fire portion of the class: a 22 caliber target pistol, a 38 caliber revolver and a 45 caliber semi-automatic pistol. The classroom portion teaches and stresses the safety rules including practice loading, unloading and dry fire with dummy rounds. Students will learn the NRA’s rules for safe gun handling, pistol parts and operation, ammunition, shooting fundamentals, range rules, shooting from the bench rest position, two handed and one handed standing positions, cleaning the pistol, and continued opportunities for skill development. All Students will receive: · Basics of Pistol Shooting handbook · NRA Gun Safety Rules brochure · Winchester/NRA Marksmanship Qualification booklet. Upon successful completion of the course and the 50 question Basics of Pistol Shooting Student Examination, the student will receive a certificate that is required for the Connecticut State Pistol Permit.
