NRA First Pistol Orientation Course

Stillwater Rifle & Pistol Club (SR&PC) offers a free pistol course that will benefit everyone regardless of his or her level of shooting experience. The course is taught by a team of NRAcertified instructors. The curriculum is based on the NRA First Steps Pistol Orientation course. It was revised, however, to make it helpful to not only new shooters but also experienced shooters. New shooters will learn how to safely handle pistols and shoot accurately in a comfortable and efficient way. Experienced shooters will be shooting a more challenging live fire course depending on his or her level of proficiency. It is recommended to repeat the course multiple times. Everyone who has successfully completed the course will receive a certificate from the NRA. The class is limited to ten students, and its duration is approximately three hours.
