- I haven't used a handgun in a while and I need a refresher.
- I'm considering buying a handgun and I want to make the right choice.
- I want the training required for the Virginia "concealed carry" permit.
What will I learn in the class?
You'll learn the basic elements of personal safety. You'll also learn the strengths and limitations of firearms when applied to self defense, how to select a handgun that meets your needs, and how to safely handle and store it.

The basic elements of personal safety. Choosing the handgun that meets your needs. Legal aspects of using lethal force in self defense. Virginia's concealed carry rules. Applying for a Virginia concealed carry permit.
How is the class taught?
The class is taught using short videos, PowerPoint presentations, handouts, personal examples and handguns, both dummy and "real". Questions are welcomed and students encouraged to actively participate.
Where is the class taught?
PERSONAL & HANDGUN SAFETY FUNDAMENTALS is taught in Richmond, Virginia at Green Top Sporting Goods. Green Top is located on Washington Highway (Route 1), just north of Virginia Center Commons. RANGE SESSIONS are taught on a private outdoor range near Doswell, VA.
Do I need a handgun for the course?
No. In fact, if you don't already own a handgun, we strongly recommend you complete the course before you make a purchase. With the knowledge you gain from the course, you'll be much more likely to buy a handgun that meets your needs.

I truly did enjoy the class and was actually disappointed that it had to come to an end. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It has inspired me to continue learning and take more classes--Allison P.
