First, let me thank the Marion Road Gun Club for once again hosting a great event and going above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. Saturday began cold and wet but... well it stayed that way all day, but the students persevered. And some even did a little Improvise, Adapting and Overcoming. One student set up a propane heater in the prep area. Free forgot his boots but a couple trashbags fixed him up. 


We began the day by framing things with the First Strike of the match. After that, we moved right into instruction. Safety Block, Pistol terminology and familiarization and then shot the Redcoat. Congratulations Jeremy for clearing the morning redcoat. Huzzah!

Then the instruction really began with Grip and stance.






Then we were really moving along. Low Ready, Close Retention, 6 Steps, NPOA, Trigger Reset, Mag Changes, Clearing Malfunctions, and Controlled Pairs before we broke for lunch. At lunch we heard the Second Strike of the Match and the Onion of Self-Defense.

After lunch, we were back at it with more practice on controlled pairs. Next we moved to One-handed shooting and spent a little time on that. Then we did some slow fire shooting. After that we took a break and enjoyed the third strike of the match.

Then it was time for some PQTs! We shot two PQTs, then a redcoat (which Mike cleared, huzzah!) before hearing the benediction. When all was said and done we had 2 new Pistoleerâ„¢s (Jeremy and Mike) as well as a requalified Pistoleerâ„¢ (Free)! Huzzah! Good job Gentlemen!

Great group and great shoot in not-so-pleasant weather! Thanks all for coming out. We hope to see you again in June.
