In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to properly clean, inspect, and maintain your handgun so it functions safely and reliably.
This class is perfect for both new gun owners and experienced shooters who want to better understand how to care for their firearm.
By the end of the class, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to maintain your handgun at home.
