I have no dog in the hunt, because I'm not going to pay that much for three days. Not to mention the cost of hotels, meals etc., but, in my humble opinion, training should be inclusive of whatever the student plans to carry. Limiting a person's choice, would prevent those who may need the training the most. I could teach someone to safely and effectively shoot, if they only wanted to carry a derringer. Would it be my first choice? No. To me it seems elitist, to tell people, that they can only learn to shoot, within a limited type of firearm.
I am not a certified instructor, so my opinion is just that. And worth every penny it cost to read it.

Makes no sense to me, but then, it's the NRA.

That's odd, not sure what the reason would be unless, there is a minimum number of rounds that need to be fired before performing a reload.
Also the picture of James Jarrett, doesn't give him props as having good trigger discipline. JMHO
