Minnesota Permit to Carry Class

Welcome to our Minnesota Permit to Carry course – the first step towards legally carrying a concealed handgun in 35 states across the country. Our comprehensive introductory level course is designed for individuals seeking to gain a strong foundation in handgun operation, shooting techniques, and firearms safety, while emphasizing the immense responsibility that comes with carrying a concealed weapon.

• Minnesota Permit to Carry Recognition: Upon successful completion of our course, you will be eligible to apply for the Minnesota Permit to Carry, which is currently recognized in 33 states, greatly expanding your ability to exercise your Second Amendment rights responsibly.

• In-depth Handgun Operation: We cover the essentials of handgun operation, including components and mechanics, loading and unloading, and proper maintenance procedures to ensure your firearm functions safely and efficiently.

• Shooting Techniques: Our experienced instructor will guide you through the fundamentals of shooting, from proper grip and stance to sight alignment and trigger control, enabling you to develop your skills and confidence as a responsible gun owner.

• Comprehensive Firearms Safety: The course emphasizes the importance of firearms safety, including safe storage, handling, and transportation practices, as well as the proper use of safety devices and gear.

• Legal and Ethical Responsibilities: Understanding the legal and ethical obligations of carrying a concealed handgun is crucial. Our course will help you navigate the complexities of firearm laws, the use of force, and the responsibilities you assume when choosing to carry a concealed weapon.

• Range Time: Our course includes supervised range time, allowing you to practice and apply the skills learned in a safe, controlled environment under the watchful eyes of our experienced instructor.

Our class is divided into two segments: a classroom session immediately followed by a range session. In the classroom, we cover handgun safety, usage, and essential legal aspects. The range session is a short qualification phase where we assess your ability to safely fire a handgun. It's not designed as a comprehensive handgun skills tutorial, and we can't offer in-depth training during our range time. If you have a new handgun that you're unfamiliar with, we recommend using one of our handguns for a fee of $5, which includes the ammunition.

By participating in our Minnesota Permit to Carry course, you are taking the first step towards becoming a responsible, well-informed concealed carry permit holder. Our goal is to provide you with the training, knowledge, and confidence necessary to protect yourself and your loved ones while upholding the values of responsible gun ownership.
