For the new applicants taking the in person classroom the time is a minimum of 4 hours, maximum of 6 hours. With the volume of material that needs to be covered for your training our goal is not to rush through vital information regarding carrying of a handgun. We believe students should be well informed and understand the law.
The range time is not part of the 4 to 6 hour classroom time.
The grace period after the license expires is still 364 days.
Our class is a one day class with coffee and tea provided.
