Instructor in the Houston / Midtown area

Post by LedJedi »

A co-worker asked me today about where she might get basic classes/instruction on shooting and gun handling. She's never shot a gun in her life, but recent events in her life have made her re-consider that.

I've offered to take her to the range, but I'd also like to give her a recommendation on a good one-on-one instructor that's not too far from her. A female instructor would be great, but not required. I'm sure she would be open to a larger class as well.

She also has a 13 year old daughter who she would like to have attend the class or at least watch.

Does anyone know someone in the Houston / Midtown area?

PSC offers a ladies class every month. There are some wonderful instructors. Will you please make this same request in the ladies forum and let them pass on the best information to you?

Thanks.

If she would feel like travelling to PSC, Charles Cotton and I are doing a Ladies only NRA Basic Pistol Class on 8/10 (6:00 PM to 9:00 PM) and 8/11 (probably 8:00 AM to about 3:00 PM). This class is designed to take someone who knows nothing and enable them to shoot safely with basic proficiency. Tell her to contact either Charles@TexasShooting.com or Marc@TexasShooting.com if interested. We have .22's she can use.

Thanx,
TraCoun

PSC is on FM528 in Friendswood, about 28 miles south of downtown Houston. I'm going to do a CHL class in the conference room of my law office, but we still have to go to a range for the shooting portion.

I could do an NRA Basic Pistol class there also, if we could get enough people interested, but we'd still have to do to a range. That would be PSC. The NRA Basic Pistol course is a one day course, so I don't really see any benefit to her to do the classroom portion downtown, then drive to PSC for the range work.
