8am to 5pm (still good???)

Bring 2-3 mags for the SA shooters, and same amount or reloaders for the revolver guys and gals...

$50 for the class...

- Should we pitch in something ($$$, or stuff to cook) to whip up real quick on the grill over there like we did on the PSC day??? Or bring "cold" balogne samiches???

I'm officially re-RSVP'ing for this date...I may try to convince "Wife Unit" to participate as well...She needs every bit of enticing to go shoot some more...Maybe not too much...

Stevie,
8:00 AM to 5:00 PM should still be good - we will start at 8:00 AM sharp
Magazines, speed loaders - sounds good
We encourage you to bring your home defense gun, but any metallic cartridge SA or REV is okay, including .22's
$ 50 - yup
A holster is not REQUIRED but it is a VERY GOOD IDEA
Eyes and ears of course
Also, keep an eye on the weather for clothing needs
Most likely we will break for lunch; if you want to brown bag it that's fine, otherwise you'll have time to go get something
Encourage your wife .... as we have seen on other threads good mechanics are absolutely essential, but so is mindset - and part of that is confidence in your firearm and your skills - we will work on all of it
Can't remember if I mentioned, but the practical part is a MINIMUM of 98 rounds.
Thanx,
TraCoun

Charles and I have rescheduled the Personal Protection in the Home class for Saturday, November 19. That's the weekend before Thanksgiving. Please let us know if you plan to attend, so we know how many to expect.

Thanx,
TraCoun

Due to Rita and the fact that most major computer models give her a real good chance of hitting the Upper Texas/Louisiana Gulf Coast, we are cancelling the Personal Protection in the Home class scheduled for this coming Saturday, 9/24.

We will let you know ASAP when we reschedule.

Hopefully a week from now we'll be saying we could have done it, but all of us have much more to think about than getting ready for the class.

Thanx,
TraCoun

Has cost been determined as of yet?

Yes, $ 50. Please see my post from 9/7.

Also, Rooster, thanks. Hope to see you there.

TraCoun

Yes, the class will be at PSC. If you go to http://www.psc-range.com you can find links to 2 different maps.

Rooster -- From what I've seen on the forum you have a good amount of experience. If you are thinking of this class for yourself, please understand it is the NRA BASIC Personal Protection in the Home class. I have a feeling it might not be very challenging for you.

Thanx,
TraCoun

mrmud1, dws1117 and anyone else interested:

The fee for our NRA Basic Personal Protection in the Home class will be $ 50.00. If you want more information please send me a PM with an e-mail address, and I will send you a course description and other information.

Thanx for the interest.

mrmud1 - We are still looking at the costs. I will let you know ASAP, probably within a day or so.

You need to bring a pistol. It can be revolver or SA. .38 caliber or over is recommended (.380 is fine), but it can be any metallic cartridge pistol. If you do not have a pistol, we have some .22 SA's, you can use one of those.

For SA's we recommend at least 2 or 3 magazines, and for revolvers 2 or 3 speed loaders. Those are not requirements, it will just make things easier. Some sort of a holster will also be a help.

If you send me a PM, I will send back a course description with more information.

Thanx,
TraCoun

Charles Cotton and Marc Gentine (TraCoun) will be doing an NRA Basic Personal Protection in the Home class on 9/24/05, from 8:00 AM until probably 5:00 PM. This class is for those who already have at least some proficiency with handguns. It involves some classroom time and a range session that involves a minimum of 98 rounds. If anyone is interested please let us know as soon as you reasonably can.
