shotgunThe goal of the Second Amendment Firearms Training & Education Association's “F.A.S.T Shotgun Instructor” course is to provide the student with a solid foundation in basic knowledge of shotguns "Fundamentals and Safety Training", a basic understanding of ammunition and how it functions as well as the shooting fundamentals.

A person new to the use of a firearm for personal defense typically has a broad range of questions and is faced with learning a number of skills that are critical in the safe use of a firearm – in this case a shotgun. F.A.S.T Shotgun is specifically designed to provide a person new to shotguns the opportunity to gain that knowledge and learn the basics of operation, cleaning and maintenance, safety and much more in a convenient 4 to 8 hour course.

The SAFTEA Instructor level courses are designed to teach the experienced shooter/instructor, how to present the SAFTEA courses to the general public using the SAFTEA MOI as a basis for instructional methods and techniques. This course also encompasses the proper running of the range portions of the class and the best practices for achieving the maximum amount of learning from the students.
