Next Step in Pistol Training?

Featured Replies

I completed the NRA Basic Pistol Course and would like to know what you recommend for the next level of pistol training. I live in north Jersey and am willing to travel. 
Thanks

 

Check out Gun for Hire’s Holster Draw, then Urban Pistol 1 and 2.

Sort of depends on your goal ... personal defense, competition?

Well, I am a brand new pistol shooter so I am looking to develop a sound, foundational base of skills.  I purchased my pistol for home defense.

This sounds reasonable...

Great!  Since you can't/won't be carrying in NJ, not sure if "holster draw" will be all that helpful.

Next Steps might be the best course to take now, as a brand new shooter the Urban Pistols might be little too advanced and not as useful right now (read their descriptions).

Although it does cover a little bit of carry, the NRA Defensive Pistol seems the most balanced on the topic of personal defense.

Keep an eye for Sights and Trigger classes just across the border in PA.

Most likely you will have to travel outside NJ to find quality training. Not many of the top trainers come to NJ regularly.
