Frontline Prepared runs women-only pistol training in Albuquerque and the surrounding metro, built on USCCA's Women's curriculum. Small classes, no intimidation, and no assumption of prior experience — taught by an NM DPS-certified and USCCA-certified instructor.
Start with Women's Pistol 1 if you've never held a handgun, move into Women's Pistol 2 to build concealed-carry-focused skills like draw stroke from concealment and holster selection, or take the two-day Women's Pistol Track to complete both in one weekend. Ready to get your New Mexico concealed carry license too? See our NM CCW classes.
