Course DetailsThis class meets and exceeds most states requirements to apply for a Concealed Handgun License (CHL), Concealed Carry Weapons (CCW) or Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP). Besides that, this course will also help increase your confidence in carrying a concealed handgun in public or having one at the ready in your home whether you are new to firearms ownership or are an experienced shooter.
This course covers handgun safety, handgun operation, ammunition types, defensive shooting essentials, laws pertaining to owning and carrying firearms, the use of deadly force, and conditions of self-defense. We take it a step further and talk about proper mindset and aftermath of a defensive shooting. After completing the range portion of the course, students will take a written test, and upon completion of the course, they will take home a wealth of information, a handbook and their course completion certificate.
A number of topics will be covered. These include but not limited to:
• Safe handling of firearms
• Safe storage of firearms and ammunition
• Basic components and operation of double-action revolvers and semi-automatic pistols depending on what you bring to class.
• Working with a natural fighting stance
• Two-Handed and single-handed engagements
• Situational Awareness
• Finding your balance of speed and precision
• Clearing common pistol stoppages
• Progressive shooting drills
• Pistol and ammunition selection for defensive use.
• Proper presentation of the pistol from concealment.
• Self defense insurance
• Benefits to having a Concealed Handgun License over just practicing Constitutional Carry
