Anyone from here going to attend this class? I was thinking about making the drive out. But it is a long one for me.

looks fun, and $40 is a steal, but 5+hours from PGH is a deal killer

I just reserved a spot.

Wow low round count, low tuition cost, sounds like a great class to take. Too bad I think I have training that weekend. I'd love to get some professional instruction on using my rifle.

We've got 14 spots left.

I don't believe what most people are doing incorrectly, or need work on with the Kalashnikov needs to be branded onto asses with a huge round count. It's not that kind of instruction.

I do recommend a set of tight tactical style gloves. We'll be doing a LOT of handling drills, and the 'K isn't forgiving re: sharp edges.

My philosophy is that people actually become numb after huge round counts, so we're focusing like a laser beam on the things that really matter.

I personally improve the most when I shoot more often, but use less rounds each range session.

Thanks to the guys on the board here who have supported LRGC, and our efforts in the rifle program.

Hope to see you there.

A couple spots left.

We'll see everyone in the clubhouse at 0900 on Saturday morning for signup, safety briefing, and the indoor first parts of the clinic where we'll be:

1- illustrating bolt disassembly
2 - how to use the items in the toolkit
3 - care after shooting corrosive ammo
4 - potential pitfalls to look for when contemplating a Kalashnikov purchase.

You don't need to bring any equipment into the clubhouse.
