I have been asked to run a class to prepare people for carrying a defensive firearm by my home range, Phillipsburg Pistol club.
It will be held on August 6th, from noon until approx. 4pm.
We will cover safe use of a holster and a number of defensive shooting techniques.
The class will finish with running each student through HQC1 and a certificate will be provided for those that achieve a passing score.
It is open to all, but members of Phillipsburg Pistol Club will have spots reserved for them.

Going to do a few posts on at home training including what you need, how to do it safely and cover some drills. From basic to some more advanced stuff. Really the importance is to focus on perfecting the basics and make it become second nature. It's important to start slowly, fix any mistakes, and build proper muscle memory. Avoid getting sloppy or lazy and developing training scars.
Practice does not make perfect. Practice makes permanent. Only perfect practice makes perfect.
I like to spend about 20 minutes a few days a week. 5 minutes for setup and clean up, and 15 minutes for practice. That's all that's really needed. Make sure you have a goal in mind on what you want to focus on. This will prevent you from getting sloppy and getting training scars, and will help you stay interested by allowing you to constantly improve.
SAFETY:
Setup a safe area where you will not be interrupted. Place your targets in the safest position in case of an accidental misfire.
Immediately check and make your gun clear. Do the same with the magazines you will be practicing with (recommend 2 empty magazines).
Retrieve all of the items you might need for this training. You don't want to have to go back into the safe or storage where your live guns and ammo are once you start practicing.
Store and lock up all live ammunition away from where you will be doing the training for the entire duration of the training. If you can't lock it up, it should be in a separate room where you will not go until your training session is totally finished and you are putting everything away.
Every time you pick up the gun, check that it is clear. Even though you know its clear, this creates the mindset to always check the status of a gun when you pick it up.
When you are done training, you are done. Don't go back and do one more thing after you start putting things away. This is when accidents happen.

I think this ammo was bought during the pandemic where it seems like quality control went out the window. I should have taken a picture of the primers today after shooting. Some had some pretty deep indents. I shoot da/sa. The thing that was a bit alarming was sometimes it didn't go off on the second attempt of dropping the hammer and sometimes it did. -
It’s possible it’s the ammo. Try a box of something from Federal-Federal primers are known to be the ‘softest’. If you get misfires still, the gun is again the prime suspect of course you’ll ultimately want it to run with any ammo, but I’ve known revolvers that can’t seem to get to 100% ignition double action with any other primer

I've been getting light primer strikes lately with my CZ. It's happening mostly with some remington 9mm I bought. It has an extended firing pin and is certainly hitting the primer so I don't believe it's that. Maybe the spring needs replacement? I did the pencil test and the pencil flew about 7 feet. Is it just hard primers/crappy ammo? Gun has about 7/8k rounds through it. -

Happened almost a year ago (5/23/23) on Easton Ave. Has anyone heard anything more about this? I can't find anything on on google.
