Classes at the Northwestern Gun Club in Duluth
Summer classes at the Northwestern Gun Club start at 10:00 am under the pavilion just past the indoor range building, or during inclement weather, in the classroom inside the indoor range. Note: The club is on Hunter Lake. This is NOT the club on Island Lake.
From Duluth, follow Hwy #53 North west 5 miles past the Miller Hill Mall. Turn right and go north on Co Rd 48, the Lavaque bypass, 10 miles to a tee and the convenience store called the Minno-ette. Follow Co Rd 48 left, now called Fish Lake Road and Taft Rd., and go west 4 miles to East Hunter Lake Road. Turn left and go south on the Hunter Lake gravel road one mile. The club's tan lake cabin will be on the right, and the gate to the ranges will be on the left.

Proceed east through the main range gate, follow the club's road past the shotgun range and 200 yard rifle range to the plinker's range sign. Turn left and pass the plinker's bench rest shelter to the indoor range building, the pavilion, and the pistol ranges.
There will be a 45 minute "bring your own" lunch break around 1:00 pm. The live fire exercise will be held outdoors, weather permitting, or in the indoor range that allows calibers up to 45acp. Please bring insect, eye, and ear protection and apparel appropriate for the weather. You are encouraged to bring your own handgun and ammunition. In any case, eye and ear protection, handguns, and ammunition will be provided for your convenience at no extra charge. Unless you already have a permit to carry, please leave all live ammunition in your vehicle until the live fire exercise. Expect to finish by 5:00 pm, and the pistol range will be made available to students afterwards for informal plinking. It is recommended that women wear ball caps and turtlenecks or neck scarves to prevent stray hot brass from causing them unnecessary excitement when shooting semi auto pistols.
