The following are procedures,
requirements and details about the class: |
| |
| Class Dates: |
 |
Classes are dictated, entirely, – by the weather and, to a much lesser degree, by numbers
of students (minimum of 5 and a maximum of 9).
The weather – must be 65+ degrees, with no more than
a chance of light rain, and with wind gusts of less than
12 mph.
Note: The knowledge / skills learned on the range could
be the difference between life and death if you ever have
to use them. Trying to safely absorb this information in
a windblown, chilly, wet, environment with loaded weapons
is dangerous / unacceptable. Thusly, classes in October, November and March are rare … but can happen.
Note: If a late-hour freak weather change (temperature drop,
or unexpected winds) is predicted, you will be notified of
the cancellation several days in advance
The range – is nine-lanes, with covered shooting tables
and seating, but open air and with outdoor targets. See the
Photo Gallery page to review the
range set-up.
The students – a minimum of five and maximum of nine individuals, all
of whom can attend on the same day, must be registered. Register
on the Contact
Us page.

|
| Where: |
| |
In Philomath … the academic phase is usually at
McDonald’s or the
public library and the range phase approximately 15 minutes
from these locations. An exact location will be provided
prior to each class. |
| |
|
| Who Can Take This Class: |
| |
Anyone with the desire, and who is not prohibited, by law,
from owning/shooting a firearm. Students 13-17 must be accompanied
by an adult. Wheelchairs are not an issue. No
prior knowledge/experience of firearms, whatsoever, is necessary. |
| |
|
| Outline of a Fairly Typical Class: |
| |
- Meet at 6:05 A.M.
- Instruction packets passed out and the class begins at
6:15
- This phase has 61 topics – ‘takes about two and a half to four hours.

- The range phase is usually finished not later than noon.
|
| |
|
| If you are from Benton County: |
| |
The class will provide the Oregon application packet. |
| |
|
| If you are NOT from Benton County: |
| |
Your Oregon application is available at your county-of-resident Sheriff's Office ... get two per person in case one gets messed up. “Sheriffs'
Shops” are not open on weekends.
You can also download your application from most county
sheriff's office web sites. If you can't get a packet, come
to class anyway and the instructor will complete the necessary form and you can transfer the info' later. |
| |
|
| You Are Not Required To Bring Anything To The
Class: |
| |
The course will provide everything.
- Application packets for Utah and Benton county
- Range cards
- Fingerprint
cards (and the accompanying instruction sheet)
- Pens, Targets, ear and eye protection, etc.
However … Bring your personal eye /
ear protection, if you so-choose. |
| |
|
| No-No Stuff: |
| |
No … Personal ammo.
No … Personal firearms. If you want to become a better
marksman, and / or familiarize yourself with your own weapon,
ask about our marksmanship course.
No … Concealed-carry holsters or fanny packs
or purses or whatever – those are for the marksmanship course.
Do not buy a self-defense gun before the class.
After this course, you'll have a much better idea of what
you, personally, should be carrying – what you shoot
best. Additionally, you will br directed to dealers
who will demonstrate / order / sell you the weapon of your
choice, usually, at a lower price than you can find on your
own.

|
| Cost: |
| |
$147.00 Check, cash, or MO, on the
morning of the class. |
| |
|
| If You Already Have An Oregon Concealed-Carry
Permit (Expired Or Active): |
| |
You still must take this course, and shoot in this course,
in order for the instructor to stamp and sign your application
and range (familiarity / competency) card. |
| |
|
| Choose Wisely: |
| |
Before taking a concealed-carry permit class, research, and
compare, the course content, and instructors qualifications,
carefully.
The skill / ability you gain from that course might well
be the live-or-die factor for you or your most precious loved
ones – this is a horrifying, played-out-many-times-everyday,
fact on today’s earth.
Courses that’ll allow (not qualify) a person to apply for a ‘permit
are common.
Programs that’ll make a permit-holder truly knowledgeable
and competent with multiple types of defensive firearms are uncommon.
The core of the ShootBane course is (after the detailed
academics) to, affordably, provide the most far-reaching
array of defensive firearms, and require the most extensive
hands-on instruction possible – in the areas of:
- Real-time safety
- Professional range conduct
- Real-life marksmanship
- Extensive, and multiple facets of,
live-fire, with multiple weapons
