Just took CCW class yesterday

[crewdawg]

I'm glad finally get my CCW class over with. Now just have to get the other stuff and send off my packet this week and then...........I WAIT....

But hopefully it will come in fast

I got to spend a few more rounds through my Glock. Just over 2 weeks old to me and 185 rounds through it. 80 of them today.

One thing I was surprised though was the targets that we shot at in the CCW class. I was expecting to have to hit a certain circle on the target but they said that it just had to be in the black silhouette. I think I managed



While at the 6 foot line, I was going to shoot a smiley face on the head (as seen in Lethal Weapon......hey, it's still in the black) but I looked and the backstop wasn't high enough and I didn't want to shoot over it, so just center mass.


I think I jerked a bit at the 15 foot line

Overall, I'm happy with this start. I'm coming from handling only rifles and only this month I shot my first semi-automatic handgun and only sparingly fired revolvers before. So I'll see where I can go from here even though this was all relaxed shooting, no adrenalyn pumping IDPA or anything, just taking your time.

Dammit, is my CCW permit here yet?

Great shooting. Stop chasing the hole and they will all be on top of each other.

Wait, huh?

Haha he said hole,hehehe.

DO NOT chase the hole!!!! It gets really expensive and causes massive headaches.

But don't get in no hurry for the permit if your mailing it in. May as well just forget about it for a couple months. Next time I have to do it, I'm just gonna take the day and go their in person like I've heard of others doing with better results.

what do you do with the hole after you catch it?

 

[Pacioli]

Drive to BR and turn your app in in person and have your prints taken digitally. That speeds things along. Otherwise, it will be a couple of months. Mine took 13 weeks from submission in late January this year.

I am going to be taking the class at the end of this month and was wondering about the shooting distances. You mentioned 6 and 15 foot did you have to shoot at other distances?
My wife will be taking the class also and i want her to be prepared to shoot and different distances. Thanks
