ABOUT THIS COURSE
XCAL’s Intermediate Pistol course expands on a student’s existing understanding of the pistol by providing advanced firearm handling skills. Learn how to master the draw, ready positions, malfunction drills, reloads, the use of cover and concealment, and engaging targets from adverse positions.
Moving at a faster pace than XCAL’s Pistol Basics and Pistol Basics II courses, students should be comfortable in the basic operation of their pistol prior to taking XCAL’s Intermediate Pistol course.
By the end of this class, students will have a greater understanding of firearm manipulation skills as well as increased confidence in their ability to handle a pistol safely and efficiently. Get ready to leave the firing booth behind and become proficient with pistol handling!
This course serves as the prerequisite to XCAL’s Advanced Pistol course.
Firearm rentals are available at the Range Check-in Counter. Ammunition and protective gear are available in the XCAL Store.
