Women’s Only Basic Pistol @ Centralia Rifle Club & Junior Division
Jan 23 @ 9:00 am – 1:00 pm

Come learn about basic pistol shooting. Safety rules, grip, stance, sight alignment and more. Now is the time to overcome the fear of firearms. If you do not own a firearm that is not a problem. Just bring a box of 9mm Luger and/or a box of .22LR and you can try the different ones I have available. Bring your firearm, appropriate ammo for that firearm, eye/ear protection (I have some to loan of those as well) and a baseball cap. Contact Dolly at 360-978-4338 if you have any questions or would like to register for this class. A $25 non-refundable preregistration fee is required with the balance due at the door.
