Operation Specific Training is pleased to announce our June 2015 Practical Fundamentals class at SIG SAUER Academy in Epping, N.H.
Instructors*:
Jerry Jones
Bruce Gray
Practical Fundamentals
This two-day program teaches the techniques and philosophy of what we believe a shooter needs to improve to their full potential. This is not a beginning handgun course. Students should have completed a basic safety/CCW class prior to attempting this course. Practical Fundamentals may be repeated several times to further one's understanding of the concepts involved.
Course Objectives
Where:
SIG SAUER Academy
233 Exeter Road
Epping, NH 03042
Class size: Limited to 24 students. (16 slots have been filled as of April 27.)
Prerequisite
An open mind and a willingness to learn. Students should have completed a basic safety/CCW class prior to attempting this course.
Tuition: $450
Tuition includes free loan of firearms, holsters, safety glasses and hearing protection at the Academy. This includes the P320 and any other P-series pistol.
Ammunition: Round count will be approximately 1000 rounds
The Academy website mentions frangible ammunition may be required. This is NOT the case for this class, as we'll be shooting at an outdoor range both days.
Registration and other Links
Questions concerning payments or registration should be routed through Kathleen Randolph at the Academy. She can be reached at (603) 610-3411.
Questions concerning the program can be directed to OpSpec Training through our online form, or here in the thread.
Where to Stay
Please check with SIG SAUER Academy for a list of hotels offering discounts to students. I'll update this thread when I am provided with a current list.
Food at Lunch Breaks
There is a collection of fast food restaurants (Subway, Wendy's, McDonald's, Burger King) about 2.5 miles (5 minutes) to the west near the intersection of Route 125 and Route 101. Of course, you can also bring your own food to the range. We'll also set up a class dinner on Wednesday night at Telly's Restaurant & Pizzeria on Route 125, again about 5 minutes from the Academy.
* Instructors listed for specific programs have committed to teach the class on those dates. Although we do not anticipate changes, travel delays, family emergencies or illness may result in instructor substitutions.
