Service Description

Applied Pistol is a hybrid class of performance pistol with defensive concepts through the lens of efficiency. Working from the ground up in a literal sense to take the "work" out of your shooting so the brain can focus on what matters. This class is designed for the intermediate to advanced level of shooting. Because of the content and context of the class it is required that students have achieved some sort of entry level pistol class or receive evaluation by GFL staff. Students can expect a comfortable outdoor environment where questions are encouraged and where safety is paramount above everything else. We will be outdoors so make sure hydration is added to your gear list.
