Just a question, but you guys have been so great with advice on here, especially my "carry into someone's home" question. :smile:
So I've had to delay my CCH class until late April/Early May now. My hand is healing fine, I should be range-ready by next week, so that's no longer an issue.
My question is this: do you think it would be a wise idea to hire a private firearms instructor and get some firing practice in at the range BEFORE I start my CCH class? Or is it better to wait until after the class? Or is hiring an instructor a waste of money? It's been years since I was at the range, so I'm basically starting from scratch. Not just target practice, I need to learn everything from the ground up.
I do not own a gun yet, I was planning on shopping while waiting for the CCH permit to come in. I'm told it's taking 90-100 days or more now in NC, so that should be plenty of time to figure out what I want and then go get it. Is that the best way to go about it?
As always, thanks for all the advice!
