UPCOMING CLASSES

Many believe the shotgun is the prime home defense weapon, yet most newer shotgun owners will never get the opportunity to operate their guns in a safe, controlled environment with any sort of practical, efficient type of shooting.



This class is designed to give the home-defense shotgun owner a chance to work out with their gun shooting live-fire drills on the range, stressing safety, loading, reloading, and firing at multiple targets with live ammunition.

TRIGGER TALK

Shotguns are just a little bit different from other firearms. They have smooth bores, require a different shooting technique, and they’re made for much closer ranges. One of the other major differences is the use of shotgun gauges, rather than calibers for measuring bore size. It’s a unique measurement that can be a bit counter-intuitive to those who are unfamiliar with shotguns. 


In this blog we’ll outline what shotgun gauges mean, the differences between using shotguns of different gauges, and where different shotguns shine for competitive shooting and hunting.
