Additional Notes:

Initial CCW course fee is $350 per person for the group class; $1000 for private. This 16-hour course meets all requirements for your county.

The eight hour general renewal course fee is $250 per person.

We are now offering a Private Renewal course. Because this eight hour block involves 250 to 300 rounds, this is for the individual who wants private training to know what it takes to survive a violent encounter.  The private course is $425 and is well worth your time and money. 

A two hour private Refresher/Skill builder class is available for $150 per person. This is perfect for those who need additional instruction before the CCW renewal class. 
 

Please call or email to schedule a renewal date with our instructors.  

The CCW course concludes with a written exam and a live-fire handgun qualification. This 50 round qualification is not easy, but your instructor will train all students to the skill level to pass this qualification.  

Counties:  Sacramento, Placer, Yolo, Contra Costa (for some counties, you must verify that we are on your approved instructor list) with more to be added.

Classroom portion requires a minimum of four students.  If minimum is not met, instructor reserves the right to reschedule.  

Per Sacramento County: new CCW applicants are directed NOT to take their training and qualification courses prior to receiving contingent approval of their application.

**Students who are unable to meet and maintain our safety requirements and/or cannot demonstrate the minimum skills required may be removed from class.
