Concealed Weapons Class Information
We hold Concealed Weapons Courses each Saturday from 8 am to 4 pm. There is a maximum of 12 individuals admitted to the class. The first 12 people that register and pay for the class are admitted. You should call first to make sure the date you desire has an available slot. The fastest and easiest way to register and pay is on-line, although you can stop by the office during normal business hours (10 am to 6pm M—F) to register and pay the tuition.
The tuition is $100 for the class. We accept cash, or PayPal. The class is held rain or shine, and you must be registered and paid in advance unless special arrangements are made. The tuition is non-refundable.
You must sign a waiver form to attend the class. If you register and pay on-line, you can fill out and sign the waiver form on the day of the class. If you are going to mail in your registration, you can download the form using the link below and mail it in with your check or money order.
