The NRA Basic Instructor Training opens with an exercise on “How to Introduce a Speaker” designed as an icebreaker. You’re paired with another Instructor Candidate, spend a few minutes exchanging information, and then introduce each other to the class. Immediately you start learning how to talk on your feet while we teach you how to offer useful praise and constructive suggestions. You’re teaching. We help you conquer shyness and develop a communications bridge with a group of people who depend on you for positive instruction. Our classes establish an atmosphere in which your fellow students assist us in helping you succeed. Step by step we guide you through five key lessons that help you learn essential methods of conducting a formal NRA class in the use of firearms. NRA Basic Instructor Training concludes with “Preparing to Teach” and the trainer’s examination.

At that point you should be ready for whichever discipline-specific instructor training class comes next for you: Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun, depending on your qualifications and enrollment. To make most efficient use of the day on which we hold this six hour class, we continue on to common elements of the discipline-specific courses (NRA Basic Pistol Instructor, NRA Basic Rifle Instructor, NRA Basic Shotgun Instructor, and NRA Personal Protection Instructor) for students who have registered in advance to go beyond NRA Basic Instructor Training into one or more NRA discipline-specific class. Or you can stop with the Basic Instructor Training class. (You are not considered an NRA Certified Instructor until you complete the discipline-specific class and the NRA Training Department processes your application and issues instructor credentials.)

You must have certification of completion for at least one of the NRA basics classes: Pistol, Rifle and or Shotgun.

An NRA Pistol Instructor Training class begins where NRA Basic Instructor Training stops: with Lesson VI. Then NRA Pistol Instructor Training proceeds through eight lessons that teach you how to conduct the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting course step by step using the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Course Outline and Lesson Plans, and how to teach pistol shooting on a basic level. NRA Pistol Instructor Training concludes with the Pistol Instructor Examination and other preliminaries to certification by the NRA. We help you learn you what you need to know for success as an NRA Pistol Instructor and we help you apply your knowledge, skills, and attitude to teaching your own classes successfully. Photographs on this page show just a few aspects of how we teach a typical NRA Pistol Instructor class. Two photographs give you a glimpse of our hands on instructional method. First we teach you how to coach a student firing the first shots. Then we supervise you as you do an actual coaching session with a student firing those first shots. We explain, demonstrate, and guide you through what you need as a first rate certified Pistol Instructor. Look for us in the photographs and you’ll notice that we are always visible but never intrusive.

Gun For Hire was founded on making shooting sports more accessible and available to every community. We recognize that while the shooting community is fascinated with competitions, most ranges are not fortunate enough to have the range space or firearms available to host a league.

We created the Gun For Hire .22 leagues as a way to include every interested person, of all age groups, in a fun and competitive shooting league.

These weekly matches are intended to be a turnkey solution to simple, fun, and affordable Precision Rifle matches.
THIS is your opportunity to take part in or introduce a new shooter into this exciting, fun, and inclusive community.
Have fun! Stay safe! Hope to see you there!

A “short description” of how the event works: There are 8 scheduled matches. You need to attend 7 out of 8 to be entered to win.  You will shoot 30 rounds of ammo at each match. We provide the rifle, ammo, eye and ear protection, and targets!

• Your target is 50 feet out: You shoot 10 rounds (1 magazine within 5 minutes)
• Your target is 50 feet out: You shoot 10 rounds (1 magazine within 5 minutes)
• Your target is 50 feet out: You shoot 10 rounds (1 magazine within 5 minutes)

Your target is brought in and scored! That’s it! At the end of the 8 matches, we will have the awards, drawings, and prizes for several categories including the top shot winners!
