rapid fire training?

not sure.

would just ask the question. even if it has been covered, some A** will tell you to use the search while several others will give you their opinion which may have never been covered in the past. I have almost never got the answer I was looking for using the search function.

http://www.sporttargetshooting.com/#! not sure if this will do anything for you. I stumbled on it and saved it without ever really looking at it. just rember it was something about training.

Woudl also ask advice from the person you bought the gun from. Especially if it was a new one because all those guys are very helpful.

Almost forgot, just noticed USA shooting made their first training course and it happens to be for rapid fire pistol and cost $15 I think.

Best advise is to find a club shooting the event and get involved with them. It's almost impossible to get involved in international shooting without a supporting club or matches within a few hundred miles. I know it is easier said than done. Check out stuff on youtube and just watch some of the matches on there as well and try and pick up on some of the techniques they are using.

goodluck.

Welcome! +1 on the advice given above. Do some internet research and hopefully there are some events near you. Like most shooting disciplines, the best way to get started is to jump in.

Rapid Fire Pistol Course is $20. Not sure if you have to be a USA Shooting member but you have to be if you want to shoot any international course of fire because USAS is the only one who supports and sanctions these events. The magazine you get every month give you tons of training information as well.
