The topics presented in the NRA Basic Pistol class form the core knowledge and skills used in all pistol shooting activities, including informal recreational shooting through hunting, competition and self-defense. Safety is foundational to the entire course. Included are segments on gun handling, shooting positions, pistol shooting activities, pistol types, ammunition, and selection of pistols, ammunition and accessories. I really like the NRA Basic Pistol curriculum. It’s a comprehensive approach to the basics of firearms training and is great for brand new shooters and for experienced shooters who wish to build a stronger foundation of knowledge and skills.
Progress through the course is not driven by a schedule. We will move through the curriculum as quickly or slowly as necessary to allow the students to learn the material. The training goal is to ensure that, by the end of the course, all the students have acquired the competence and confidence to safely handle a pistol on their own.
All live fire for the Basic Pistol course will be conducted on a one-on-one basis with an NRA certified instructor. We will start with a .22 caliber pistol and ammunition provided by Critical Edge. Those students who already have a pistol of their own, and would like to fire it, will have an opportunity to do so. But, they must bring their own ammunition and notify Critical Edge in advance.
The course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 6 people.
There are no training prerequisites for this class. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 21 and above that may legally possess a firearm. Students below age 21 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please coordinate the attendance of students below the age of 21 with Critical Edge in advance of signing up for the class. Due to current interpretations of International Traffic in Arms Regulations stemming from the Arms Export Control Act of 1976, only current, lawful “US Persons” – both US Citizens and lawful permanent Resident Aliens in possession of a current I-551 (colloquially known as a “Green Card”) are allowed to participate in NRA firearms training courses.
Preregistration and an initial deposit of 50% is required for registration and reservation of a spot in the class. You may cancel your reservation up to 72 hours before the class begins and request to receive a full refund or to credit the funds to another Critical Edge class. If cancellation is made in less than 72 hours before the class, you will receive a credit which may be applied to another Critical Edge class at a later date. Credit must be used within 180 days.
The fee for the course is $145.00. Members of the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association, veterans and first responders receive a $15.00 discount.

Critical Edge Intermediate Shotgun
2025-07-08 09:00 - 17:00 | Duncannon Sportsmen, 256 Montebello Farm Rd, Duncannon, PA, 17020, United States
Registration closed.
This is not an NRA class.
Continuing to build on the foundation of safely handling a shotgun acquired in the NRA Basic Shotgun class, this class is orientated towards the defensive use of a shotgun and includes material on gun handling, reloads, malfunctions, engagement of multiple targets and use of cover and concealment. It is an ideal stepping-stone to a home defense with shotgun course and a great opportunity for students to polish the skills learned in the home defense class.
The drills will be “performance based” to increase the student’s knowledge, competence and confidence with a shotgun. The drills will also encompass rapid movement and other physical activity to push the students to perform under a degree of “stress.”
There are no formal training prerequisites for this class. Students must, however, be competent in the safe handling and operation of their firearm. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 18 and above who may legally possess a firearm. Under federal law, however, certain non-U.S. citizens are prohibited from participating in this course. Only non-U.S. citizens who are: (1) lawfully permanent residents (e.g., green card holders); (2) refugees; or (3) individuals who have been granted asylum may participate in this course.
Progress through the course is not driven by a schedule. We will move through the curriculum as quickly or slowly as necessary to allow the students to learn the material. The training goals of the course are to provide an introductory foundation to enable the students to safely and successfully practice defensive shotgun skills on their own and to prepare them to continue into more advanced training.
Live fire will be conducted with the student’s shotgun and ammunition. Expect to shoot 250 – 300 rounds during the live fire segment of the class. Hearing and eye protection are required. Semi automatic and pump shotguns in either 12 or 20 gauge are recommended for the class. Single barrel/single shot shotguns and double barrel shotguns will greatly hamper the ability of students to participate in many of the drills and present a considerable barrier to defensive skills development. A sling, shotgun mounted shell holder and a body worn shell carrier or ammunition pouch are all highly recommended. If you are purchasing a shotgun or accessories prior to this course, check with Critical Edge for some advice about options before making your purchase.
The Critical Edge Intermediate Shotgun course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 8 people.
The fee for the course is $125.00. Members of the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association, veterans and first responders receive a $15.00 discount. The fee for members of the U.S. military on active duty and students who have taken the class previously is $60.00. Preregistration and an initial deposit of 50% is required for registration and reservation of a spot in the class. You may cancel your reservation up to 72 hours before the class begins and request to receive a full refund. If cancellation is made in less than 72 hours before the class begins, you will receive a credit which may be applied to another Critical Edge class at a later date. Credit must be used within 180 days.

Preregistration required. This is not an NRA class.
The Critical Edge Intermediate Pistol class is for students at skill levels from new pistol owners to those who grew up with firearms and want to improve their defensive firearms capabilities. It is a class designed to bridge the gap between marksmanship on a conventional range and the defensive application of a pistol. This is an ideal class for someone that has taken a basic pistol class who doesn’t feel they’re quite ready for a home defense or concealed carry course. It is equally good for an experienced shooter that is new to defensive shooting. This class is practical pistol training intended to assist participants in achieving much higher levels of proficiency. Regardless of previous experience it will help to build on the fundamentals of shooting, foster safety in the handling of firearms and help participants avoid bad habits. The class goes beyond basic operation and introduces students to the use of a firearm in defensive situations. This class will reinforce skills learned in Basic Pistol like proper grip, stance, sight alignment, and trigger press, as well as address common handgun malfunctions, reloads, the use of cover and concealment and close quarters application of a defensive firearm. This is a class that can be taken multiple times in order to polish basic defensive pistol skills. While the cost of ammunition has dropped considerably from the height of the shortage, laser pistols will be relied upon as an effective way to learn skills and to reduce ammunition costs.
The course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 8 people.

A belt mounted magazine holder or speed load holder is highly recommended and a strong side belt mounted holster that was made specifically to fit your pistol is required.

Hearing and eye protection are required as are three magazines or, if a revolver is to be used, at least two speed loaders. A belt mounted double magazine holder or double speed load holder is highly recommended and a strong side belt mounted holster that was made specifically to fit your pistol is required.

NRA Basic Shotgun

Registration closed.
The focus of the NRA Basics of Shotgun shooting course is for the student to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitude to safely and effectively handle a shotgun and to fire at a moving target. This course works well for somebody who wants to try shotgunning without having to invest in a gun and for those who have discovered the enjoyment of shotguns but have not yet purchased their own gun and are looking for help in making a selection. The class provides a solid foundation for new shooters as well as an opportunity for experienced shooters to learn new skills, and gain awareness of any “bad habits” that may have gone unnoticed for years. Included are sections on shotgun types, accessories, ammunition selection, gun handling and live fire. Safety is emphasized throughout the course. The material presented in this course forms the core knowledge and skills used in all shotgun activities from hunting through home defense and formal competition.
Progress through the course is not driven by a schedule. We will move through the curriculum as quickly or slowly as necessary to allow the students to learn the material. The training goal is to ensure that, by the end of the course, all the students have acquired the competence and confidence to safely handle a shotgun on their own.
All live fire for the Basic Shotgun course will be conducted on a one-on-one basis with an NRA certified instructor. We will start with a 410, 20 or 12 gauge shotgun and ammunition provided by Critical Edge. Those students who already have a shotgun of their own, and would like to fire it, will have an opportunity to do so. But, they must bring their own ammunition and notify Critical Edge in advance.
The course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 6 people.
There are no training prerequisites for this class. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 18 and above that may legally possess a firearm. Students below age 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please coordinate the attendance of students below the age of 18 with Critical Edge in advance of signing up for the class. Due to current interpretations of International Traffic in Arms Regulations stemming from the Arms Export Control Act of 1976, only current, lawful “US Persons” – both US Citizens and lawful permanent Resident Aliens in possession of a current I-551 (colloquially known as a “Green Card”) are allowed to participate in NRA firearms training courses.

For many people, the term “personal protection” evokes movie images of Bruce Lee or characters such as John Wick with arsenals of weapons. In truth, the use of force is only one element of personal protection and is a last resort. Deterrence, de-escalation, escape, evasion or otherwise avoiding violence are all preferable resolutions. The NRA Concealed Carry course is basic training for concealed carry. It teaches the basic knowledge, skills and attitude necessary to carry a concealed pistol for personal defense. The NRA CCW Course is intended for all individuals regardless of previous shooting experience or NRA-affiliation. It focuses on the effective use of a concealed firearm for self-defense. Course topics include: firearm safety, pistol nomenclature and selecting a pistol for self-defense, basic defensive pistol skills, drawing from concealment, loading and stoppage remediation, mindset, carry modes and pistol concealment, firearm cleaning, and sport shooting and training activities. Additionally, students will complete live fire training and a shooting qualification while on the range with an NRA Certified Instructor. Students will receive reference books, take a NRA CCW Student Examination and receive a course completion certificate.
There are no training prerequisites for this class. But, taking the NRA Basic Pistol course or similar training before undertaking the Concealed Carry course is highly encouraged. Live fire will be conducted with the student’s pistol and ammunition. Expect to shoot 150 rounds during the live fire segment of the class. Hearing and eye protection are required as are at least three magazines or, if a revolver is to be used, at least two speed loaders. A belt mounted double magazine holder or double speed load holder and a strong side outside the waistband belt mounted holster that was specifically made to fit your pistol are also required.

Included are segments on gun handling, shooting positions, pistol shooting activities, pistol types, ammunition, and selection of pistols, ammunition and accessories.

Registration closed.
The Critical Edge Tactical Pistol class is for students at skill levels from new pistol owners to those who grew up with firearms and want to improve their defensive firearms capabilities. It is a class designed to bridge the gap between marksmanship on a conventional range and the defensive application of a pistol. This is an ideal class for someone that has taken a basic pistol class who doesn’t feel they’re quite ready for a home defense or concealed carry course. It is equally good for an experienced shooter that is new to defensive shooting. This class is practical pistol training intended to assist participants in achieving much higher levels of proficiency. Regardless of previous experience it will help to build on the fundamentals of shooting, foster safety in the handling of firearms and help participants avoid bad habits. The class goes beyond basic operation and introduces students to the use of a firearm in defensive situations. This class will reinforce skills learned in Basic Pistol like proper grip, stance, sight alignment, and trigger press, as well as address common handgun malfunctions, reloads, the use of cover and concealment and close quarters application of a defensive firearm. This is a class intended to be taken multiple times in order to polish basic defensive pistol skills.
The course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 8 people.
There are no training prerequisites for this class. Students must, however, be competent in the safe handling and operation of their firearm. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 21 and above that may legally possess a firearm. Due to current interpretations of International Traffic in Arms Regulations stemming from the Arms Export Control Act of 1976, only current, lawful “US Persons” – both US Citizens and lawful permanent Resident Aliens in possession of a current I-551 (colloquially known as a “Green Card”) are allowed to participate in NRA firearms training courses.
Live fire will be conducted with the student’s pistol and ammunition. The drills will be “performance based” to increase the student’s knowledge, competence and confidence in the defensive use of a pistol. The drills will encompass rapid movement and other physical activity to push the students to perform under a degree of “stress.” Expect to shoot 250-300 rounds during the live fire segment of the class. Hearing and eye protection are required as are three magazines or, if a revolver is to be used, at least two speed loaders. A belt mounted double magazine holder or double speed load holder is highly recommended and a strong side belt mounted holster that was made specifically to fit your pistol is required.
Preregistration and an initial deposit of 50% is required for registration and reservation of a spot in the class.

Registration closed.
Continuing to build on the foundation of safely handling a shotgun acquired in the NRA Basic Shotgun class, this class is orientated towards the defensive use of a shotgun and includes material on gun handling, reloads, malfunctions, engagement of multiple targets and use of cover and concealment. It is an ideal stepping-stone to a home defense with shotgun course and a great opportunity for students to polish the skills learned in the home defense class.
The drills are “performance based” to increase the student’s knowledge, competence and confidence with a shotgun. The drills also encompass rapid movement and other physical activity to push the students to perform under a degree of “stress.”
There are no formal training prerequisites for this class. Students must, however, be competent in the safe handling and operation of their firearm. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 18 and above who may legally possess a firearm. Under federal law, however, certain non-U.S. citizens are prohibited from participating in this course. Only non-U.S. citizens who are: (1) lawfully permanent residents (e.g., green card holders); (2) refugees; or (3) individuals who have been granted asylum may participate in this course.
Progress through the course is not driven by a schedule. We will move through the curriculum as quickly or slowly as necessary to allow the students to learn the material. The training goals of the course are to provide an introductory foundation to enable the students to safely and successfully practice defensive shotgun skills on their own and to prepare them to continue into more advanced training.
Live fire will be conducted with the student’s shotgun and ammunition. Expect to shoot 250 – 300 rounds during the live fire segment of the class. Hearing and eye protection are required. Semi automatic and pump shotguns in either 12 or 20 gauge are recommended for the class. Single barrel/single shot shotguns and double barrel shotguns will greatly hamper the ability of students to participate in many of the drills and present a considerable barrier to defensive skills development. A sling, shotgun mounted shell holder and a body worn shell carrier or ammunition pouch are all highly recommended. If you are purchasing a shotgun or accessories prior to this course, check with Critical Edge for some advice about options before making your purchase.
The Critical Edge Tactical Shotgun course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 8 people.

Progress through the course is not driven by a schedule. We will move through the curriculum as quickly or slowly as necessary to allow the students to learn the material. The training goal is to ensure that, by the end of the course, all the students have acquired the competence and confidence to safely handle a pistol on their own.
All live fire for the Basic Pistol course will be conducted on a one-on-one basis with an NRA certified instructor. We will start with a .22 caliber pistol and ammunition provided by Critical Edge. Those students who already have a pistol of their own, and would like to fire it, will have an opportunity to do so. But, they must bring their own ammunition and notify Critical Edge in advance.
The course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 6 people.
There are no training prerequisites for this class. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 21 and above that may legally possess a firearm. Students below age 21 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please coordinate the attendance of students below the age of 21 with Critical Edge in advance of signing up for the class. Due to current interpretations of International Traffic in Arms Regulations stemming from the Arms Export Control Act of 1976, only current, lawful “US Persons” – both US Citizens and lawful permanent Resident Aliens in possession of a current I-551 (colloquially known as a “Green Card”) are allowed to participate in NRA firearms training courses.
Preregistration and an initial deposit of 50% is required for registration and reservation of a spot in the class. You may cancel your reservation up to 72 hours before the class begins and request to receive a full refund or to credit the funds to another Critical Edge class. If cancellation is made in less than 72 hours before the class, you will receive a credit which may be applied to another Critical Edge class at a later date. Credit must be used within 180 days.
The fee for the course is $145.00. Members of the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association, veterans and first responders receive a $15.00 discount. The fee for members of the U.S. military on active duty is $75.00.

For many people, the term “personal protection” evokes movie images of Bruce Lee or characters such as John Wick with arsenals of weapons. In truth, the use of force is only one element of personal protection and is a last resort. Deterrence, de-escalation, escape, evasion or otherwise avoiding violence are all preferable resolutions. The NRA Concealed Carry course is basic training for concealed carry. It teaches the basic knowledge, skills and attitude necessary to carry a concealed pistol for personal defense. The NRA CCW Course is intended for all individuals regardless of previous shooting experience or NRA-affiliation. It focuses on the effective use of a concealed firearm for self-defense. Course topics include: firearm safety, pistol nomenclature and selecting a pistol for self-defense, basic defensive pistol skills, drawing from concealment, loading and stoppage remediation, mindset, carry modes and pistol concealment, firearm cleaning, and sport shooting and training activities. Additionally, students will complete live fire training and a shooting qualification while on the range with an NRA Certified Instructor. Students will receive reference books, take a NRA CCW Student Examination and receive a course completion certificate.
There are no training prerequisites for this class. But, taking the NRA Basic Pistol course or similar training before undertaking the Concealed Carry course is highly encouraged. Live fire will be conducted with the student’s pistol and ammunition. Expect to shoot 150 rounds during the live fire segment of the class. Hearing and eye protection are required as are at least three magazines or, if a revolver is to be used, at least two speed loaders. A belt mounted double magazine holder or double speed load holder and a strong side outside the waistband belt mounted holster that was specifically made to fit your pistol are also required.
The course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below.

The NRA Basic Rifle course teaches the basic knowledge, skills and attitude to safely own and operate a rifle. Instruction will include both classroom and range time addressing safe rifle handling, rifle parts and operation, ammunition, shooting fundamentals, range rules, shooting from the bench rest position, cleaning the rifle and continued opportunities for skill development. This class is a comprehensive presentation of the basics and is a great way for new shooters to get started and for experienced shooters to build a stronger foundation of knowledge and skills.

Critical Edge Tactical Shotgun

Registration closed.
Continuing to build on the foundation of safely handling a shotgun acquired in the NRA Basic Shotgun class, this class is orientated towards the defensive use of a shotgun and includes material on gun handling, reloads, malfunctions, engagement of multiple targets and use of cover and concealment. It is an ideal stepping-stone to a home defense with shotgun course and a great opportunity for students to polish the skills learned in the home defense class.

The drills are “performance based” to increase the student’s knowledge, competence and confidence with a shotgun. The drills also encompass rapid movement and other physical activity to push the students to perform under a degree of “stress.”
There are no formal training prerequisites for this class. Students must, however, be competent in the safe handling and operation of their firearm. The course is open to U.S. citizens age 18 and above who may legally possess a firearm. Under federal law, however, certain non-U.S. citizens are prohibited from participating in this course. Only non-U.S. citizens who are: (1) lawfully permanent residents (e.g., green card holders); (2) refugees; or (3) individuals who have been granted asylum may participate in this course.

Progress through the course is not driven by a schedule. We will move through the curriculum as quickly or slowly as necessary to allow the students to learn the material. The training goals of the course are to provide an introductory foundation to enable the students to safely and successfully practice defensive shotgun skills on their own and to prepare them to continue into more advanced training.

Live fire will be conducted with the student’s shotgun and ammunition. Expect to shoot 250 – 300 rounds during the live fire segment of the class. Hearing and eye protection are required. Semi automatic and pump shotguns in either 12 or 20 gauge are recommended for the class. Single barrel/single shot shotguns and double barrel shotguns will greatly hamper the ability of students to participate in many of the drills and present a considerable barrier to defensive skills development. A sling, shotgun mounted shell holder and a body worn shell carrier or ammunition pouch are all highly recommended. If you are purchasing a shotgun or accessories prior to this course, check with Critical Edge for some advice about options before making your purchase.

The Critical Edge Intermediate Shotgun course will be held within an easy driving distance of Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Carlisle, PA at the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association on the dates below. We will meet in the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association clubhouse. To ensure close personal attention for each student, this course is limited to 8 people.

The fee for the course is $125.00. Members of the Duncannon Sportsmen’s Association, veterans and first responders receive a $15.00 discount. The fee for members of the U.S. military on active duty and students who have taken the class previously is $60.00. Preregistration and an initial deposit of 50% is required for registration and reservation of a spot in the class. You may cancel your reservation up to 72 hours before the class begins and request to receive a full refund. If cancellation is made in less than 72 hours before the class begins, you will receive a credit which may be applied to another Critical Edge class at a later date.
