It had been way too many years since I took a shotgun class and I admit I don’t shoot it as often as I should, even for fun. So, when Outpost Armory offered a Shotgun Fundamentals class, I decided to follow the advice of Randy Cain and go back to basics and just knock some of the rust.
I believe that other than me and maybe one more, all of the students may have had a passing knowledge of shotgun or plain none at all. It was great to see people wanting to learn and do so in a platform that was supposed to be hard.


And, of course the obligatory arty-tacticool photo,

I know, I am not Oleg. Shut up. 😀
They have more classes in other guns coming up and I believe I will take an AR class followed by a Red Dot Handgun class.
I will keep you posted.
It’s always a good thing to reinforce and review basics.
Are there things that stick out that were “unexpected” learning topics?
To me, the manipulation of a semi auto shotgun, what to look for and what to expect. The rest was simply a good review to knock rust off the hinges.
