F.I.R.S.T Steps Course
Description
FIRST stands for “Firearm Instruction, Responsibility, and Safety
Training”. The F.I.R.S.T. Steps program is a basic course abbreviated to
the most fundamental shooting skills, and the specifics of a
particular model of firearm.
This course, because of its narrow focus, can be completed as
quickly as three hours. Students will get an NRA handbook for their
type of firearm and quick practical lessons on the safe use,
cleaning, and storage of their firearm.
Course Goal
“To provide beginning shooters with an introduction to the
knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary to own and use a specific
model of firearm safely.”
