If you want to try shooting for the first time, a #FirstShots® class is a great way to begin.
These classes are designed for beginners, with clear and easy-to-follow instructions, and a strong focus on safety and making sure everyone feels comfortable.
The @Mission_94 Firearms Education Center shows how well this approach works.
Range Master and Operations Manager Chris Meter says that offering structured beginner training in a friendly setting has led to steady growth and strong interest from students with many different backgrounds.

Chris Meter, Range Master and Operations Manager at @Mission_94 Firearms Education Center in Kenosha, Wisconsin, was initially unsure how much impact #FirstShots® would have when the range launched the program in 2024.
Mission94 started with introductory pistol and rifle sessions a few times each month.
Interest quickly drove the pistol class to six sessions monthly, and the range is now launching a new suppressor course with plans to offer it at least twice a month.
Today, Chris describes First Shots as the most popular offering at Mission94:

Range instructors end up fixing mismatches and troubleshooting when every lane runs different platforms, ammo and gear.
#FirstShots® addresses this issue by standardizing class setups. With consistent firearms and ammunition, students progress together — allowing instructors to prioritize safety, proper form and confidence through clear, repeatable practice.
@Mission_94 Firearms Education Center has reported this structure to be effective during ongoing training.
Chris Meter, Range Master and Operations Manager, notes four to six out of 10 students typically pursue additional instruction after participating.
