Default New Gun Club In Villages

Come join us for great information on firearms in a non-political setting.

Cool Gun Club

The new Villages “Cool Gun Club” will meet at the Fish Hawk RC on the second Monday of each month starting November 12th at 6 PM. This gun club will focus on instruction and the safe handling of firearms (pistol, rifle and shotgun). The “Cool Gun Club” will not be hosting or scheduling any Villagers only shoots. You will be asked for your email address so that we can inform you of the next meeting or any scheduled shoots in the local area that you might want to attend. There are no dues and no membership is required, only bring a good attitude and a willingness to learn safe firearm handling.

Topics that will be discussed include the Castle Doctrine (Stand Your Ground); Florida Concealed Carry Laws, where to carry, where not to carry; what States honor Florida's Concealed Weapons Permit (CWP), as a resident/non-resident; firearms safety; and where to shoot in the local area. Florida’s law on firearm registration, waiting periods and how to transport a firearm within the State of Florida will also be discussed.

There will be displays and information about carry, recreational and competitive firearms. Each month a different type of firearm will be presented so that everyone will have an idea of how to render safe any firearm that you may come into contact. How and when you can bring your personal firearm into the club will be discussed at the first meeting. Please no personal firearms at this meeting.

There will be an occasional guest speaker from one of the local Gun Stores and others training faculties in the local area who will speak on firearm training and the current availability of firearms and ammunition. DVDs will be available showing different shooting styles.

All the “Cool Gun Club” instructors are NRA certified with Law Enforcement and civilian firearms training. CWP training will be offered at no cost* to Villagers and information will be provided on what is needed to obtain a CWP, as a Florida resident or non-resident and the current cost of the permit. Assistance will also be available on filling out the application.

All of our Instructors will be introduced at the first meeting and will be available to answer questions on their training and how to contact them.

This is a non-political gun club and we will NOT be discussing politics.

Firearms Class & Training

The following classes are available from the Cool Gun Club. All classes will be taught by NRA Certified Instructors. Group classes will be limited to 10 students, except the NRA Range Safety Course, so that individual attention can be given to each shooter. Private one-on-one lessons may be arranged with any of the instructors.

Florida Concealed Carry Classes
First Steps Pistol
Basic Pistol To Advanced Pistol
Basic Shotgun
Home Firearm Safety
Personal Protection In The Home/Outside the Home
NRA Range Safety Officer Course
Group Classes in Pistol/Shotgun
Private Classes in Pistol/Shotgun
Tactical Firearm Training
Competitive Pistol Shooting
Introduction to IDPA (International Defensive Pistol Association)
Introduction to USPCA, ICOR, Trap/Skeet and other shooting sports
Where to shoot in Central Florida close to the Villages
Ladies Only Classes taught by a NRA Lady Instructor


Please visit our IDPA website at Eustis Gun Club IDPA Website for additional information on IDPA shooting and shoot dates. I can be contact by email at shooter@LDCollett.com

*Cost for classes will be for range fees and for materials only. Material and range fees will be discussed at the first meeting. Individual, Group and Private Classes requested at times other than scheduled meetings, may require an Instructor Fee, to defray the cost of transportation and fuel and will require Range Fees for non-Eustis Gun Club Members. There will also be a small target fee.

I want to thank all those that have taken a look at this new club. We will be holding our first meeting a week from today, November 12, 6 PM, Fish Hawk Rec Center, Village of Buttonwood. If you own a firearm or are thinking of acquiring one, please join us. Learn about safety, the safe storage and handling of firearms.

On another thread I read where some of the ranges are not allowing reloaded ammunition to be fired on their ranges. This is mostly indoor ranges. I reload all my ammunition as does lots of my students and we are allowed to use this ammunition at the Eustis Gun Club, Tavares, Lake County.

Please visit our IDPA website for a link to the Eustis Gun Club, Eustis IDPA & Cool Gun Club Website

Looking forward to seeing lots of interested shooters. Always be safe and responsible when handling firearms.

Default Meeting DEC 10th?

Just learned about this club and joined the email list at the website... Is the 2nd meeting still scheduled for Dec 10th, 6PM @Fish Hawk RC? If so, I will be there. Our Village has a small but active gun club (e.g., regularly scheduled indoor shooting, trips to gun shows & gun shops, etc.). Some of us are joining the Ocala Sportsman Association to access the outdoor range there, and to support the facility. Looking forward sharing our hobby together with your members... RB
