Colorado House Bill 24-1174 (HB24-1174), effective July 1, 2025, introduces significant changes to the state's concealed handgun permit (CHP) training requirements. The bill mandates an 8-hour in-person training course conducted by a "Verified Instructor," covering topics such as firearm safety, legal responsibilities, and includes both a written exam and a live-fire exercise.
A 8-hour course is broken up into the following course structure:
Legal & Law – This section covers Colorado-specific laws related to concealed carry, self-defense, use-of-force regulations, and the legal responsibilities of gun owners.
Firearm Safety Class – This portion focuses on the safe handling, storage, and operation of firearms, including fundamental marksmanship skills and best practices for responsible gun ownership.
Written Exam - An open book 50 question written exam based on the class material.
Live Fire Exercise - After the Module 1 or Module 2 there is a scheduled live-fire exercise. You will have up to 30 days from the date of the class to schedule with one of our instructors to complete this exercise.
All the parts to the course need to be taken to get the needed certificate to take the county sheriff. Course is up to date with new July 1 2025 standards and content.
