Introduction to Defensive Handgun

The Introduction to Defensive Handgun class gives students the information, skills, and mindset to carry and use a handgun for self defense. In this class, students will learn to use their handgun safely and quickly as is required in close-range, high-speed violent confrontations. This course should be considered a minimum for anyone who owns, or is considering to carry, a handgun for self defense.
