How To Choose Your Firearms Training Instructor?

 Choosing the right firearms training is important. First, you want to be sure that you are getting the kind of instruction that will prepare you for legal and practical gun ownership in Maryland. The law requires at least eight hours of training for those who wish to obtain a Handgun Qualification License (HQL). This can be through either an NRA-certified instructor or an instructor certified by the Maryland State Police.

1.      Review The Instructor's Training And Background

You should scrutinize the training and background of your firearms training instructor. Do they have a reputation for being professional and reliable? How long have they been teaching, and what experience do they have in the field? What is their teaching style? Do they appear to be enjoying themselves during class time, or are they too focused on keeping students safe to enjoy themselves as much as they could be?

 

2.      Know About The Size Of The Class

If you're learning how to shoot, the instructor should be able to teach in a small class. This is because there's less distraction for students, and no one else is waiting for them when they're trying to concentrate on their work. It also means that your instructor can spend more time with each student, which will help them improve their learning.

 

3.      Do They Offer Private Tuition

Private lessons are also convenient because you don't have to worry about getting there on time or missing class if you have an obligation at work or school. If something comes up and prevents you from attending training, you can make up for it, later on when convenient.
