Brookfield's "Wisconsin Firearms Training Center," or WFTC, has one motto, confidence and competence, for all its clientele. This is whether you've shot for years or are just starting. I fall in the latter category. Before today, I never have even touched a firearm. I thought it would be a good idea to learn and understand what it's like to hold a weapon. But the biggest reason I took on this assignment was to discover the importance of gun safety.
I first tried out a Glock and then advanced to a 45 Caliber. I did better with the .45 since the trigger was "lighter" and easier to handle, in my opinion. If fact, I hit the marked target.
WFTC offers numerous gun safety classes. You can even rent guns here. And new this summer, there's something called "Armed Citizens Academy." This is a four-session class touching on topics like Conceal and Carry Weapon training, handgun marksmanship, and self defense law. To sign up for sessions, make sure to click on the attached link.
