Women’s Only Basic Pistol Class @ Centralia Rifle Club & Junior Divison
Feb 20 @ 9:00 am – 1:00 pm

Education is the first step to overcome your fear of firearms. Want to buy a pistol but don’t know what to look for, then this class is for you. Have a firearm you are not sure about all the buttons and levers, this class is for you. If you do not own a firearm, no problem. I have several for you ladies to try, you would need to bring a box of 9mm Luger/Parabellum and/or .22 LR ammo to the class with you. The class is $75 which includes a $25 non-refundable registration fee. Preregistration is required. Bring eye/ear protection (I have extra of those), your firearm if you have one, the proper ammo for it, and a baseball cap. Call Dolly at 360-978-4338 to register or have your question answered.
