Becoming Riflemyn - Rifle Marksmynship

This course will supply knowledge and skills required to become a Riflemyn.  A riflemyn is a person capable of hitting 20" targets from 500 meters with standard equipment.  Information covered will range from fundamental to advanced skills, depending on progress of the students.  The goal of this course is to expand responsible rifle knowledge into urban culture.  Students will be able to transfer their knowledge to members of their respective communities.

The course will likely be several meetings, beginning with classroom orientation of safety and basic firearms knowledge.  This will include discussion of types of rifles for prospective buyers.  A comprehensive text will be provided.  This will be followed up with one or more range days where one will be able to learn the concepts and knowledge of becoming a Riflemyn.  Students are encouraged to provide their own rifles, though this is not necessary.  An ideal student will be open to eventually purchasing a rifle and being comitted to learning the trade of Riflemynship through dedicated practice.  Please email the facilitator upon registering to explain your level of interest. 

It should be noted that while this is an introductory course, it is complete in riflemynship content.  If one is dedicated to learning and open to absorbing the information, one will have the skills to acheive a standard of marksmynship that exceeds 99% of rifle owners.  We call this the Riflemyn standard.  Those who acheive this standard will be considered a Riflemyn, and will recieve a nifty patch.  This course is in no way a statement of political belief or motive.  It is simply the knowledge of skill.  While all are welcome, outwardly oppressive or offensive perspectives will not be tolerated.

Meeting times will vary depending on student availablity, please email facilitator with your availablity.
