Gun Control Reform Activism
In reply to the discussion: "Gabrielle Giffords Gun Control Super PAC Raises $6.5 Million" [View all]tumtum
(438 posts)29. We are favorable to the firearms safety regulations the
Mark and Gabby's organization are lobbying for.
We are very safety oriented when it comes to handling firearms. We have our own certified instructors not affiliated in any way with the NRA.
The Liberal Gun Club is pleased to announce the launch of our Basic Firearms Course. Currently, we have LGC certified instructors in Illinois, Florida and Massachusetts where it is an Approved Basic Firearms Safety Course for the state.
Our course is designed to be intimate and free of political baggage. It is aimed at inexperienced firearms owners or those who simply want to relearn the basics. Class sizes are small and range instruction groups are even smaller they are limited to no more than three students at a time. This makes for more one on one time with the instructor so that you get the most out of your time at the range.
The course consists of both a classroom portion and a hands-on portion at a range. The classroom portion takes approximately 4 hours to complete. After successfully mastering the class materials you will spend an additional hour on the range familiarizing yourself with the proper way to safely and effectively handle a handgun.
For more information email the LGC Education Coordinator for your state listed below. If you dont see your state listed, we apologize but encourage you to check back again new instructors are being added all the time, maybe one will be close to you. Thanks for your interest in The Liberal Gun Clubs Basic Firearms Course.

For more hands on safety training, LGC can recommend some great courses, again, not affiliated with the NRA.

Notice how there are NO "reasonable" gun owners here at DU who claim to be in favor of gun safety

I also love the way they "reject" the NRA, often saying they were once members but no more.
