FreeFallRet is going to be training us in the finer points of not drowning. I HIGHLY recommend this class! |

All you need to do is show up with a great attitude and pass a 50m swim test.

And that's after getting the sand and salt off the boat parts. |

@alphajaguars how is interest in a one day carbine or pistol class or something on Sunday? We'd need a range spot.

I am thinking not this weekend, but next weekend - Either a couple of days of only Carbine 1, or a series. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By alphajaguars: How many people do you need to come to make it worthwhile? I am still waiting on the quote for the range cost, but if it's just me teaching, I'm at 5 max for entry level courses. We can go to 8 if I have someone to act as a SO. What I might end up doing is renting the place for three days and running 3 days' worth of courses, open to the public. Not sure how I feel about 3 days of pistol/carbine 1 yet though. ETA: I don't want to cram the course although that would reduce the cost for everyone; it's all fun and games until someone gets a new hole in their pantleg. |

Very true.
This is something I’ve wanted to do but have never made a priority, especially a pistol class. What type of lead time do you normally need to set one up? What qualifications would you need for someone else to have to be a RSO? |
