This class is now full, but if you are interested we strongly suggest you register for the waitlist. If space becomes available, we will contact you to make your deposit/payment immediately.

We understand ammunition is limited and you may not want to dig deep into your stash for a class. But you still should be training. If the round count listed is outside your budget, contact us. We can adjust your experience during the class so you are not shooting as many rounds, but still get valuable repetitions and training. We will work with you. Contact us to discuss.

OpSpec Training returns to Richmond, California offering our flagship Practical Fundamentals class on April 9 & 10, 2021. This class has been very popular with all pistol shooters including law enforcement in the area. The class will be held at the Richmond Rod & Gun Club, located 25 minutes north of Oakland and about one hour from Sacramento.

Along with making a deposit or paying for the class in full, ensure you register for the course. Learn more about the Practical Fundamentals class right here.

READ THE CLASS TESTIMONIALS

This course teaches the techniques and philosophy of what OpSpec Training believes a shooter needs to improve to their full potential. This is not a beginning handgun course.

Practical Fundamentals (Pistol) may be repeated several times to further one’s understanding of the concepts involved. OpSpec Training instructional staff include a collaboration of custom gunsmiths, competitive shooting, and law enforcement specialists who have created a training environment and curriculum that is ‘process’ oriented rather than ‘goal’ oriented.

The class fee is $470 plus range fees.

Where to Stay
If you are looking for a hotel in the area, we are suggesting you look for properties near the following communities: El Cerrito, Albany or Berkeley (south of Richmond), or El Sobrante, Pinole, or Hercules to the north. Berkeley will have the best selection for hotels as well as food.

As with all of our classes, we suggest you book your room early so it is on hold.

Food at Lunch Break
To ensure you get the most “bang for your buck” lunch breaks are one hour. If you have the ability to bring your lunch, we you may do so. If you need to run out and get a quick meal, there are options in the area. Fast food restaurants (McDonald’s, Subway, Jack In The Box, Little Caesar’s) are located near Contra Costa College about 12 minutes (3 miles) to the southeast. Limited food options will be available on-site on Saturday.
