This is a classroom and range live-fire course that will certify you to apply for your resident or non-resident Connecticut State Pistol Permit. Our certified instructors will cover the safe handling and operation of many types of modern firearms. Students will develop the knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary for the safe handling, operation, and storage of firearms and ammunition in the home, and proper transportation of firearms outside the home.

Classes are held select Sundays monthly from 10:00am to 4:00pm. Students will be escorted to the range at the conclusion of the class for the live fire portion, weather permitting (the range is outdoors, so please dress accordingly).

This course is $200.00 per person. Upon completion you will receive your NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Course Certificate.
