I've been interested in taking a snub nosed revolver specific training class. The small revolver is easy to carry, light weight, and effective. It does take a little effort and some specific skills to maximize it's potential.
Here's the course outline for the Snubby class I'm working on. Let's get off the couch and learn some skills. Sound off if you are interested or have any questions.

Snub Nose Revolver Skills Development Course
This is a one-day skill building class for 5 shot snub revolvers. It emphasizes marksmanship development, gunhandling, and carry techniques.
Learning objectives for the class:
Make hits with the snub, not just noise,
reload the revolver efficiently and with confidence,
carry the revolver in a low profile way and practice deploying it,
shoot a state recognized Concealed Carry qualification course, and
learn appropriate practice techniques and drills to keep your skills up after the class is over.
Attendees will receive a training certificate sufficient for obtaining a Florida Non-Resident Concealed Weapon or Firearm License.
Equipment requirements: Eye and ear protection, revolver with belt holster, at least one speedloader. Optional but encouraged: Given the usual environments we carry snubs in, wear old business casual type clothing that you don't mind getting dirty/torn. Such personal comfort items as you feel you will need, e.g., hat, sunscreen, etc. I will provide water at the range.
Ammo requirements: 150 rounds of practice ammo; Wal-Mart White Box is fine, not +p defense ammunition. In addition, bring 10 rounds of the ammunition you keep for self defense purposes.
