Well like the title says - any good recommendations? I want to go and get familiar with safe handling/procedures/etc before I go to the range in the near future.
Reeds in Santa Clara or target masters in milpitas.
try here as it's close to SF.
I just go here to shoot when I need to Zero in my rifle scopes or it's raining and want to shoot. Indoor.

I was one of their first students so the classes were pretty small when I went. I have nothing but praise for their teaching style and for them as instructors. Recently I have heard the classes have been packed, you may want to see if they have any openings.
Let them know Dustin sent you.

Thanks Charles I'll go check that out
no prob.
Favorite firearm?
Glock Model 22, 40 S&W
I shoot at Reeds since I work close to there, but I took my pistol course in San Rafael at Bullseye. I think that place is better than Jackson Arms. The training pistol course (3 hrs) was on sale through groupon too : )
Out of curiosity what didn't you like about Jackson? They used to be over where Lowes now is off the 101 in SSF (also where Underwater World had a very brief stint)

Screw the course.
Just don't point it at anyone and you'll be fine. 
Unless you want to kill them...
Funny you should ask, but I'm going to a class tomorrow @ Reeds. They're in santa clara, probably too far away, but I believe that most ranges have a basic firearm class. I don't know which places are best or recommended.
