New Shooters Shoot – for women who have never touched a firearm or those who want a quick refresher class on safety in a women-only shooting environment.

We have NRA-certified instructors and NRA-certified Range Safety Officers to provide a safe environment. We are the first, and one of the only women-only shooting environments in New Hampshire!

The New Shooters Intro Classes are open to League members and guests. All non-members are required to pre-register as a Student for a Day for a fee of $25 which can be used towards a membership if you choose. Walk-ins are not accepted.

All participants in our New Shooters Intro Class will use a .22 caliber pistol and ammo that we provide. This is to help new shooters be comfortable and build on success.

All attendees must register ahead of time as the classes fill up very quickly and we have a limited number of seats we can fill in our women-only shooting environment.

You can register here: https://wdlnh.org/services/student-for-a-day/

After your payment is sent, you will receive an email within a few days confirming your registration in the class.

If you are an existing member of the League, email events@wdlnh.org for registration – the New Shooters Shoot is FREE to members.

The class is from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Please arrive by 8:15 AM. The class will begin promptly at 8:30 AM.

*Refund/Cancellation Policy* If The League has to cancel an event due to weather or other issues, we will gladly issue a refund if you cannot make the re-scheduled class. Any cancellations by participants are not eligible for refunds nor can they be used towards another class in the future

Women's Firearm Training - WOMEN ONLY Environment
2026-11-15 08:30 - 16:30 | Renaissance Firearms Barrington, NH, 55 Calef Highway, Barrington, NH, 03825, United States
Basic Pistol Class – Women’s firearm training with women only range staff! Women empowering women!

When & Where

Our upcoming class is on Sunday, November 15th (starting promptly at 8:30 am) to 4:30 pm. It will be held at Renaissance Firearms in Barrington, NH in a temperature controlled indoor range. It is a women’s firearm training class in an empowering environment!

Class

The NRA Basic Pistol Course is intended for all individuals regardless of previous shooting experience or NRA affiliation. This course is a minimum of 8 hours and includes classroom instruction and range time learning to shoot semi-automatic pistols. This is an instructor-led program and is not a blended training course.

Students learn NRA’s rules for safe gun handling; pistol parts and operation; ammunition; shooting fundamentals; range rules; shooting from a standing position; pistol selection and storage; and continued opportunities for skill development. Students will also complete live-fire training on the range. A NRA Certificate will be issued upon satisfactory completion of this course.

Day of Class

Participants should bring their own eye and ear protection (we have some available as well). Also bring beverages, lunch and any snacks. Please wear appropriate attire — closed-toe shoes and full-coverage shirts as hot brass can be very uncomfortable and present a safety hazard when it hits bare skin. A brimmed hat such as a baseball hat is recommended but not required. Wearing layers is also helpful.

The Women’s Defense League will supply the firearms, ammunition, targets, and student packets.

Registration

All participants must prepay to reserve their seat. The fee for non-members is $95 and for League members it is $70. Go to this link below to pay prior to class day. Space is limited to 24 participants and spots will only be held for people who pre-pay. NOTE: These classes fill up extremely fast, spots are reserved on a first-come, first-serve basis!!

All participants are also expected to complete a liability waiver prior to participation which will be made available at the event.

You can register for the class here: https://wdlnh.org/services/basic%20pistol%20registration/

*Refund/Cancellation Policy* If The League has to cancel an event due to weather or other issues, we will gladly issue a refund if you cannot make the re-scheduled class. Any cancellations by participants are not eligible for refunds nor can they be used towards another class in the future.
