Also a mini cross bow, and fantastic shot gun shooting clay targets, which my friend obliterated.
Had great eye and ear protection, very important to have.
Learned the basics of how to load and unload the weapons, and tips on what to do/ not do on a public range with the weapons.
All in all, a tremendous undertaking on a short timeline, but well worth the effort.
Attached some pics, and am hopeful to return soon and learn even more.
Safety First is my motto, and it is definitely something to respect when learning to fire these weapons.

Hi Holly:
Have you gone to anymore training classes recently? I think that I may try to look for another instructor and training facility around me. I was looking at a place in PA, one in Frederick MD, and one near me. I have to do a bit more research and ask some questions. I know the one in PA I need my own handgun, so I guess I have to get my rear out there and do some more "handgun" testing. I think I will do some this Friday after work. Oh, and thanks again to everyone that provided such great advice and information.
Plus, I need to occupy my weekends and this is what I really want to do, more training.
