Introduction to the AR Platform Class - Morning Session

Class Location:  CRPC Action Shooting Facility, Bay 2

Lead Instructor:  Tobe Gagnon, Certified Firearms Instructor

Instructor Contact:  ontargetreviews@gmail.com

 

This Introduction to the AR Platform class has been designed to educate students who are both new and experienced with AR-Platform firearms.  In this class students will learn about the history of the platform, how it was designed to function, common and useful upgrades, and will be taught how to safely disassemble, clean, lubricate, function check, load, operate, unload, and store their AR-Platform firearms.
 

This is a hybrid style class. The first half will be lecture-style where students will have the opportunity to learn, ask questions, and take notes. The second half will be conducted on a hot range where students will practice good safety and technique while zeroing their rifle and building good muscle-memory through basic exercises.
