Fellow Californians!
I'm interested in putting together a Pistol clinic eventually in the SOCAL area, and wanted to know where the guidance is on running one here in Cali.
Bob/Cam/EagleScouter:
Have you guys put something together yet?
Can our state even DO one? Ha ha!
Anyway, putting the topic out there: I'm a new Shoot Boss (since last year), and I think a pistol clinic would go over well here in SOCAL and at my home range in Rainbow.
Cheers, here's the thread quote from the Pistol Clinic forum thread:

Yes California ran a Pistol IBC in the spring of 2021 minting multiple Pistol Instructors.  https://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=60157.msg387544#msg387544

Yes California has run a public pistol event, it can be done.
Old Guy:  Do it long enough and you get really good at it.

Rifleman:  Sacramento:  Four Ought Nine
Full Distance:  Red Bluff:  What year was that?
Pistoleerâ„¢:  Hat Creek:  Three Twenty One

Make yourselves good scouts and good rifle shots in order to protect the women and children of your country if it should ever become necessary.

Thanks, Eaglescouter! I was up in Sacramento for the IBC, I bet Laurie told me and I forgot!
