Hello everyone, new member from Pacific Beach here. Hope to learn a lot! Looking into some firearms training to get acquainted with the proper use and safety with shotgun/handgun/rifle before I make my first purchase. I have fired each, but very limited experience.

Anyone know good trainers here in SD I could contact?

Welcome to Calguns. You might want to contact some of the ranges near you to see what classes they offer.

American shooting center has classes that can get you started. After that hit up "10X defense" for some of their classes.

If you are bold just start out with 10X.

Hey! Welcome to the forum. I'm in Clairemont. Check the ranges for training classes. You can also rent guns at a lot of the ranges to get a feel for what you want before you buy. I usually go to American Shooting Center, because it's right my my shop, but I've heard good things about Discount Gun mart, and P2K.
