Before You Book

Quick Answers

A few of the questions we hear most often before class.

Do I need a permit before taking the class?

No. Training comes first. The class is part of the application process, so you do not need to already have the permit before attending.

Do I need to own a firearm?

No. Firearms may be available for training and qualification if you do not currently own one.

I've never shot before. Is this class for me?

Yes. Beginners are welcome, and many of our students begin with little or no previous firearm experience.

Does completing the class guarantee my permit?

No. Completing the required training does not guarantee approval. Permit decisions are made by the applicable issuing agency.
