Overview
This is one of the most challenging classes with just a 30% pass rate intended to provide advanced pistol training. This is an option for students who achieved successful completion of the NRA Basic Pistol or FIRST Steps Pistol courses. The goal is for your Instructor to guide you through this training to the point at which you have accomplished each objective and become qualified to receive a course completion certificate. 100% hits on target is required to pass.

Who is the course for?
The NRA Defensive Pistol is for adult individuals who are not disqualified from possessing a firearm as defined by applicable federal, state, or local law and are of good repute and possess defensive pistol skills. Participants must also understand the basic legal concepts relating to the use of firearms in self-defense, and must know and observe not only general gun safety rules, but also those safety principles that are specific to defensive situations. Prospective participants can demonstrate that they have the requisite knowledge, skills, and attitudes by producing a NRA Certificate, or by passing the pre-course evaluation.
