It's hard to pick a "best thing" about the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits; there's just so much family fun to be found around every corner that it's impossible to choose a favorite. That said, one of the best things about this yearly NRA Family reunion is that there are so many opportunities to hear from world-renowned experts in everything guns, hunting and self-defense. Even better is the fact that these seminars are free. Whether you're just looking for some entertainment while you rest your feet or the seminar's your main goal at the "NRA Show," you'll find something that interests you. There are dozens of seminars from which to choose, but here are four we don't want to miss!
Mental Dynamics of Shooting (Speaker Gabby Franco)
Room: 350DEF
Saturday, May 28, 2022:1:15 PM -2:15 PM
This seminar, taught by Olympian shooter Gabby Franco, focuses on the cognitive processes that happen while shooting. Gabby teaches how to be aware of weaknesses and reinforce strengths to help shooters understand their performance. Shooting is a discipline with simple techniques, yet they seem complex when filtered through the power of the mind—shooting, like many sports, requires mental preparation to improve consistency and accuracy.

Refuse To Be A Victim (RTBAV) Executive Counselor Ed O'Carroll stands at the head of a packed room and explains gently, "This is your decision, what you're going to do in a criminal confrontation.

O'Carroll, a national trainer, has been teaching RTBAV to standing-room-only houses for over a decade. In that time, he's seen the program grow to help over 100,000 people develop a home- and self-defense strategy that works for their families. Expect plenty of Q&A time!
