Basic Handgun Course Structure
Basic Handgun is divided into three progressive levels. Upon passing the final level, students qualify to take the Basic Qualification. Intro to Handgun or 88 Tactical’s Nebraska Concealed Handgun Permit course is required as a prerequisite, unless waived by a Lead Instructor or higher in the training department.
Basic Handgun Level 1
This course is tailored for individuals with some introductory experience who are ready to build a solid foundation in defensive handgun skills.
Basic Handgun Level 2
This course builds on the fundamentals introduced in Basic Handgun Level 1 and combines lectures, dry-fire exercises, and live-fire drills to advance students' defensive shooting abilities.
Basic Handgun Level 3
This course builds on the fundamentals introduced in Basic Handgun Level 2 and focuses on diagnosing and correcting grip and trigger control issues to maintain consistent accuracy.
Basic Handgun Qualification
The Basic Qualification allows students to demonstrate the skills and knowledge gained throughout the course. To pass, students must achieve a score of 70% or higher within three attempts, with each stage completed within a set time limit.*
Upon successful completion, students will receive a Certificate of Completion, a custom pin, and access to the next level of handgun training.
*If students do not pass within three attempts, they can repeat any class in the level at half price for additional practice. For focused training, consider our Basic or Intermediate Handgun Skill Builders. For personalized instruction, contact us at training@88tactical.com. Once ready, students can retake the qualification at the same price.
