I just heard on the radio that the Williamson County Sheriff's Dept. is offering a free handgun training course saturday in Herrin Illinois. I was told it consists of 3 hours of classroom and 4 hours of range time. When I called to register only 5 or 6 people had. They asked for my phone number in case there weren't enough people to have the class. I don't think you need to be a Williamson County resident. The non-emergency number is 618-997-6541 push 7 for administration. It will start at the 911 office in the Herrin city hall 300 N. Park st.

I just got home and had a message that the class has been canceled. I called the deputy in charge of the class and he said they need at least 8 to have the class and will take a maximum of 16. He said they will advertize the class again and probably have it October 23 if enough people register.

So. Ill. Free Handgun Class Oct. 30

There will be a free basic handgun class in Herrin, Illinois on October 30. If anyone is interested let me know. I've got 7 people lined up, they need 8 for a class.

I would have started a new topic for this class but I can't figure out how to do it. Is there a new topic button that has disappeared?
