The Concealed Carry Permit Class, which meets the CO, WY and FL concealed handgun permit training requirements, is an intense four-hour comprehensive review of handgun safety and concealed carry law. This class is designed for all levels of shooters. Beginners or individuals who have never shot a gun before should talk with us about supplemental live fire training.
We teach this class because we recognize that many of our students come into class with a great deal of previous firearms experience. Some class providers will lump everyone together and ignore the previous experience of their students. This is not our approach.
Our class includes discussion on the laws for concealed carry and the use of deadly force. This class stresses the responsibilities of the concealed carry permit holder, pistol techniques and different carrying methods.
Completion of this class will give the student a certificate necessary when applying for a concealed carry permit.
New shooters are welcome to attend, but are encouraged to seek live fire training and/or practice with an instructor or experienced family member.
Private range instruction is a good supplement to the Basic Concealed Handgun Class. There is no waiting in line for your turn to shoot in this one-on-one setting. Private range instruction is done in a fun, comfortable and supportive environment.
Instruction aims to diagnose and correct shooting errors while emphasizing safety. We we believe in providing a supportive environment so we never yell at students. WE ARE NOT DRILL INSTRUCTORS!
