This 3 phase course covers " handgun safety", handgun laws, the 7 fundamentals of shooting and gives a chance to apply all those on the range.

"This Morning, Arkansas State Trooper 1st Class Moomey hit a drunk driver head on, ON PURPOSE. The drunk was speeding the wrong way on the interstate, obviously posing a grave danger to others. The drunk driver died, the Trooper is barely hanging on. The trooper made a deliberate, informed decision to stop a threat despite a very low chance of survival for himself. He quite literally put himself between innocents and a threat. The Hallsville Community and the Hallsville First Responders stand and salute you Arkansas State Trooper 1st Class Moomey for your sacrifice and heroism." Credit: Paul Montoya @ Hallsville, Arkansas

There has been 171 Men and Women in 2020 that has given the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. Thank you for your service our prayers are with the families of our brothers and sisters!
