SUMMARY:"WOMEN ON TARGET" 1/2 Day Shooting Clinic
DESCRIPTION:Course: Women On Target®  1/2 Day Instructional Shooting Clinic \nDate: Saturday\, Oct 10th. \nSpace Availability: 6 spaces available \nTraining Location: Silverlake\, Los Angeles\, and Newhall\, CA \nTime: 9am – 3pm (Doors open at 8:45am.) \nPrice: $125  (+ammo and range fees)  \nRange: Oak Tree Gun Club\, Newhall\, CA \nTo Enroll: Text us at 3234929357 or click Contact and let us know you want to book available spot(s) in this Saturday\, Oct 10th clinic (or get on the waiting list in case somebody bails.) We’ll email you a 24-hour reservation for your spot(s) and all you then need to do is submit the requested contact information in a reply email and remit payment in full by PayPal\, Venmo\, or Zelle and you’re all set! \nWomen On Target® 1/2 Day Shooting Clinic Description: \nFor over 25 years\, The Women On Target® Instructional Shooting Clinics have introduced thousands of women to shooting in a safe and welcoming environment. These clinics are not traditional classes – they are half- or full-day events in which women learn gun safety\, explore shooting disciplines\, refresh skills\, and meet others who share an interest in shooting sports.  Left of Center Gun School is excited to partner with Women On Target®  and host these outstanding clinics!  All participants receive a Women On Target® new shooter gift bag free of charge from the NRA. (Contents may vary.) \nWho is this clinic for?  Women who already own guns and women who do not but are curious about them.  If you own a gun\, BRING YOUR GUN and train with it.  If you are new to guns\, we’ll provide the guns and literally walk you through this entire experience! For women new to guns\, this is intended to be a low stress and super fun introduction to the whole topic of guns.  If you already own a gun\, or you are a Pistol Shooter 1 alumna\, this clinic will be an AWESOME refresher and coaching session. \nWhat is involved?  You come over to our Silverlake studio and we share a cup of coffee and have introductions all around.  Then I’ll thoroughly cover gun safety and introduce you to a variety of different handguns. I’ll show you how to hold them\, aim them\, fire them\, and be safe with them throughout it all.  After a couple hours we’ll then all head over to Oak Tree Gun Club in Newhall (35-minute drive) and have lunch at their on-site bar & grill.  After lunch it’s only a 4-minute walk over to the outdoor pistol range where you get to experience a live-fire session under my careful supervision and assistance of our all-women LOC NRA Range Safety Officers. We’ll stand right next to you and walk you through the range experience.  If you are gun owner\, we’ll give you as much autonomy over your firearm as you desire and I’ll coach you at your current skill level.  If you are brand new to guns\, we will take on as much of the burden of the gun handling experience as you want us to. For example\, do you want to load the gun yourself?  We’ll show you how and you can do it. Alternatively\, we’re happy to load them for you 🙂 \nWomen On Target® 1/2 Day Shooting Clinic FAQs \nOn behalf of myself and our Left of Center Gun School all-female NRA Range Safety Officers\, we really look forward to being your guides on this 1/2-day adventure! Space is limited so RSVP today.  \n \nCheers\, \nDavid SelmoNRA Chief Range Safety OfficerPistol/Shotgun Instructor NRA#254968225CA DOJ State Certified Pistol Instructor #356673Cell: 3234929352david@davidselmo.com

SUMMARY:INTRO TO RIFLES
DESCRIPTION: Course: Intro to Rifles \nDate: Sunday\, Oct 18 \nSpace Availability: 5 spaces availalbe \nTraining Location: Silverlake\, Los Angeles\, and Newhall\, CA \nTime: 9am – 4pm (Doors open at 8:45am. Lunch is NOT provided but there will be time to stop and grab something.) \nPrice: $250 + $35 ammo and approx. $30 in range fees.   \nRange: Oak Tree Gun Club\, Newhall\, CA \nTo Enroll: Text us at 3234929357 or click Contact and let us know you want to book available spot(s) in this Oct 18th course (or get on the waiting list in case somebody bails.) We’ll email you a 24-hour reservation for your spot(s) and all you then need to do is submit the requested contact information in a reply email and remit a $75 deposit or payment in full by PayPal\, Venmo\, or Zelle and you’re all set! \nFYI: Can’t find a course date that works for you? Let’s discuss creating a new course date that does! I am totally open to adding a new date to the calendar. \nCourse Description: \nIntro To Rifles is a super fun day that starts at 9am at our Silverlake studio where you’re introduced to 3 different rifle-types: semi-auto\, lever\, and bolt-action. We’ll be training with Marline 336 RC\, a Ruger Mini 14\, a Savage Axis II Precision in .223\, a Ruger 10-22\, and a Ruger PC 9mm Backpacker.   \nIn the morning You’ll learn how to operate\, load & unload\, hold\, aim\, and fire each one. Next\, we take a dive into bullets\, ballistics\, and the art of acquiring targets and ranging targets using both glass optics and iron sights.  \nIn the afternoon we jump in our cars and head over to Oak Tree Gun Club in Newhall\, CA and put it all into practice. We fire a total of 65 rounds from all the various rifles listed at distances up to 140 yards.  \nValue Add: The Ruger PC 9mm Backpacker is an outstanding home defense weapon. It is small and has the weight and feel of a BB gun in your hands. It fires a 9mm pistol bullet from a standard Glock pistol magazine so it has virtually no perceived recoil.  We love it for two reasons: First\, it has a long history of successful police use (in its previous 1980’s wooden stock edition)\, and second\, it is one of the few legal 9mm carbines available in California NOT classified as an “assault rifle.”  You will be receiving elements of our Carbine for Home Defense training as part of this rifle class. \nThis is a really interesting and fun day.  Come join us! \nDave Selmo

SUMMARY:PISTOL SHOOTER WORKSHOP
DESCRIPTION:Course: Pistol Shooter Workshop \nDate: Oct 25 \nSpace Availability: 4 spaces available \nTraining Location: Burro Canyon Shooting Park\, Azusa\, CA \nTime: 9:30am-2pm \nPrice: $295 + $50 range + ammo \nTo Enroll: Text us at 3234929357 or click Contact and let us know you want to book available spot(s) in this Sunday\, October 25th course (or get on the waiting list in case somebody bails.) We’ll email you a 24-hour reservation for your spot(s) and all you then need to do is submit the requested contact information in a reply email and remit a $75 deposit or payment in full by PayPal\, Venmo\, or Zelle and you’re all set! \nFYI: Can’t find a course date that works for you? Let’s discuss creating a new course date that does! I am totally open to adding a new date to the calendar. \n \nCourse Description: \nPistol Shooter Workshops are held in the spring and fall on a private range at Burro Canyon Shooting Park in Azusa\, CA.  Bring your own gun (and at least 2 magazines) or use one of ours.  You’ll fire upwards of 300 rounds from an overhead-protected shooting pavilion comfortably out of the sun.  \nIf you are currently a handgun owner or you intend to become one\, this workshop is one of the most beneficial training sessions Left of Center Gun School currently offers to our handgun clients.  The course is intended to be a “bridge” for new shooters to become confident and fully independent with a handgun.    \nWe’ll get your gun-slinger skills to a whole new level by starting off with an intense review of all your basics (command grip\, two-hand grip\, loading and indexing mags\, hold control\, sight picture\, breath control\, trigger squeeze\, and follow through). Then we’ll do a series of warm up live fire exercises to help everyone achieve to tight shot groups at home defense distances.  Next\, we’ll get into rapid mag changes and immediate action drills for clearing the weapon when it jams in a fire fight. Finally\, we’ll move into one handed shooting\, rapid shooting\, and we’ll introduce you to point-shooting. (Point-shooting involves hitting man-sized targets at home defense distances without using the gun sights. Just “point” and “shoot.”)  \nThese are quick reaction defensive combat shooting skills you will want to have in a home defense situation. However\, the bi-product of this training is you end up walking away from the range saying “I can finally do this whole gun-thing on my own.  I get it now.  I feel comfortable.  I don’t need anybody standing by my side coaching me anymore.” \nBring your folding camp chair and a hearty lunch because we’ll take a relaxing lunch break at the midpoint. This is a crazy fun ½ day at the range! \nThis is the closest thing I will do this year to putting myself out of a job with you!  But you can always come back and retake the workshop at a discount to keep your skills up. \nLooking forward to working with you again 🙂 \nDavid Selmo
