The Community Education office at Eastern Wyoming College in Torrington announces a Handgun Proficiency class to be held on Saturday, May 11, 2019 with a cost of $100. The class will be held on the Torrington campus in CTEC room 133 from 8:00 – 10:00 am and the remainder of the class will be held at the Torrington Police Department firing range until 5:00 pm.

Whether you are simply wanting to develop or improve your handgun safety skills and proficiency, or intend to apply for a Wyoming Concealed Carry Permit, this class will meet your needs. TPD Sgt. Connelly will provide instruction on core fundamentals of handgun safety, proper handling, transportation and storage, as well as handgun shooting specifics such as proper stance, correct grip, sight alignment, proper trigger press, and sight picture.

All participants in the class will experience a 2 hour session of classroom instruction with the remainder of this one day class participating in live-fire range sessions. Participants are responsible for providing their own handgun, holster and ammunition. Holsters, eye protection, ear protection, and a hat with a brim are required equipment for the live-fire range sessions. Please do not bring guns or ammunition to the on-campus portion of the class. Feel free to bring water, and snacks to the range.

Successful completion and testing of this class will fulfill the state requirement to apply for a Concealed Carry Permit in Wyoming.
