Hope folks see it. Sounds like good training on the cheap

Thanks for the plug. Our class is a lot lower in price than comparable classes given in Louisiana. It is done as a public service.

How much$$$$$

In the above post it states $45.00 ...

Missed that part don't I feel stupid.....

I'd like to take my wife (not that I'd probably pick something up too), she's been interested but would feel more comfortable with more women there.
Doug, what's the ratio?
Anyone bringing their wives, gf, moms, other females?

Don't forget to wear your MSGUNOWNERS t-shirt.

Update received from Doug:

The fee is $50 not $45. We had to raise the fee because of the cost of ammunition.

The same class in Louisiana can cost as much as $200.00. We do this as a public service.

Bump

Class starts tonight....its too bad this is on the same weekend as the Magnolia Rifle and Pistol Club annual meeting and a USPSA match....

The class is sold out. It is one of the best classes for the money that is offered in the area.

As far as it beeing on the same weekend as the match, we scheduled the class last September nad had no knowledge of the match at Magnolia.

Doug

If this class is offered again I'd be interested in attending with my wife.

I would also like to know if you schedule another class for my wife and myself. Thanks!

+2 Doug, my wife was looking forward to it but I needed to join the range. Let us know when you may have it again, we'll come.

Those of you that are interested in attending a class, should send me their email address. I will add you to our email list and you will be automatically informed about the next class.
