About the Course
In addition to our group training courses, KCG offers private instruction for every type of firearm (pistol, rifle, shotgun) and for everyone from the first-time beginner to experienced shooters and everyone in between. Your private instruction session is completely customizable and tailored to you.
The best way to determine the type, content, and length of the instruction you need is to speak with you directly. In doing this, we can better understand your level of experience, goals and objectives, and how we can best coach you in your training.
