8 Hour Class - $100.00 Per Student - 9 am to 5 pm
 
Any Semi-auto or Pump Shotgun. (No single shot, double barrel, or bolt action shotguns please)
 

• 200 rounds Birdshot
• 25 rounds 00 buck
• 15 rounds slug

 
* NOTE; If using a semi-auto shotgun, you will need “high base” rounds. Most semi-auto guns will not cycle low base shells. We would recommend the “Low Recoil” loads offered by the major manufactures for the 00 buck and Slug rounds, as it just takes more of the felt recoil out of the equation. Birdshot need only be #8 dove loads for training.

Eye and Ear protection is provided by Trident Firearms if you don not have your own. Eye protection MUST be full wrap around style.

A ball cap or similar type hat with a brim is REQUIRED.

Good footwear that offers ankle support is recommended. No open toe shoes, sandals, etc. Knee pads are always a good thing.

Long pants, no shorts, we recommend cargo style pants, Blackhawk, 5-11 type, or military BDU’s with the bellows pockets to hold additional rounds.

A pouch that will attach to your belt that can hold additional shells would be highly desirable if you don’t have cargo pocket style pants.
