Student Appreciation Weekend

Front Sight offers Student Appreciation Weekends in exciting Las Vegas, NV., for students who have completed one or more regular courses at Front Sight during the previous year. A typical "weekend", shown here, provides a seminar in proper submachine gun use.

Machine gun instruction — Range Master Mike Waidelich begins Student Appreciation Free Submachine Gun Seminar with on-range lecture and demonstration.

The Student Appreciation Weekend is free of charge, and all weapons and ammunition are provided by Front Sight free of charge as well. You simply show up and enjoy yourself! This is Dr. Piazza's way of saying, "Thanks for attending Front Sight Firearms Training Institute!"

Machine gun drills — Students ready themselves to deliver a two shot burst from submachine guns on instructor's command.
