MICHIGAN COALITION FOR RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNERS "Promoting safe use and ownership of firearms through education, litigation, and legislation." MONDAY E'NEWS Become a MCRGO CPL Instructor People become MCRGO CPL Instructors for a variety of reasons. Assisting others in obtaining their concealed pistol license is perhaps the most important thing you can do to protect self defense rights in our state. About 70% of our instructors transition to MCRGO from a national agency. MCRGO's instructor program is developed by instructors and is designed to make teaching students as simple as possible. Program administrators are easily accessible to instructors with fast, personal replies to questions and suggestions. MCRGO's program is Michigan specific and is focused on carry outside the home. There is no cost to apply to become a MCRGO instructor. The fee to register for an instructor workshop varies with the workshop and pays for compensation to the trainer, materials, venue rental, and MCRGO's liability insurance. Instructor workshops take place over a single weekend. Online renewal after two years is $25. There is no need to order materials from MCRGO. Instructors pay $10 per student which includes access to student certificates, all training materials, and a 1-year membership for the student. It also includes access to a video to teach the legal portion of the class. Over 40,000 students have obtained MCRGO certification since the program was launched in July 2016. The certificate is accepted in all 83 Michigan counties. You may apply to become a MCRGO Instructor HERE. Introduce Friends & Family to Shooting MCRGO is offering New Shooter Workshops at the 2021 Fall Firearms Festival on Saturday, September 25 at Greenville. This is a great way to introduce friends or family members to firearms. There is no cost to participate in the workshop. Participants should be at least 18 years old and either new to shooting or inexperienced with firearms. MCRGO will supply .22 pistols for use at the workshops along with ammo, ear & eye protection. Workshops are scheduled for 12 PM and 2 PM and are limited to 12 people each. Workshops last for 60 minutes. They include 30 minutes in the classroom covering gun safety and essential information for shooting a pistol. This will be followed by 30 minutes on the range shooting 20 rounds total per person. If they have a fear of guns, don’t worry! The .22 pistols have very little recoil. The workshops will be taught by MCRGO Instructor Chuck Bates with assistance from other MCRGO Instructors.
