I am also the shooting sports director for our local boy scout council so teaching teens is not an issue. I do need parental permission and or a waiver of some kind for you to take the class. We can work it out.
So lets pick a place halfway between here and the Springs and do it. I'll need a "classroom" big enough for the class size, and then we need a range that can handle .22 pistols. You could do it all in one day if I hurry, and we don't have to go far to shoot.
The NRA Basic pistol class is ten hours long. There is a simple written test, and a range session required. On completion you get a certificate that meets all the state requirements for the permit. (Sorry at 15 you can't get a permit.)
I'll need two weeks to order in materials.
So somebody take charge of this and set it up. When you get eight to ten people will do it. And I'll do it cheap. (Although I may want some help with gas and such.) I'll check on the cost of supplies today. I'd rather not do more then 10 at a time. It just takes longer and is harder to get all the practical stuff done.
The alternative is you all come to the springs and use my classroom and my range. But it sounds like you'd rather me come to you. So we'll work it out.
