Carrying concealed weapon permit

Comprehensive CCW Qualification Testing: Your Path to Permit Acquisition

In today's world, the importance of personal safety and self-defense cannot be overstated. For those who choose to carry a concealed weapon (CCW), obtaining the necessary qualifications and permits is a crucial step. We offer CCW qualification testing for both initial issuance (16 hours) and permit re-qualification (8 hours), ensuring that our clients are well-prepared and confident in their firearm handling abilities.

Mandated Training Requirements

Our training meets the mandated 16 hours of training required by all state and counties. This comprehensive training covers a wide range of topics, including firearm safety, handling, and marksmanship, as well as legal aspects of carrying a concealed weapon. By completing this training, you will be well-equipped to handle your firearm responsibly and in accordance with the law.

Private Range and Targets

To ensure a safe and focused learning environment, our training takes place on a private range. This allows our instructors to provide personalized attention to each client, addressing any concerns or questions that may arise. Additionally, all targets are supplied by us, so you can focus on honing your skills without worrying about additional expenses.

Course Completion Certificates

Upon successful completion of the CCW qualification testing, clients will receive a course completion certificate. This certificate serves as proof of your proficiency with a firearm and is a requirement for obtaining a CCW permit in most jurisdictions.

Preparing for the Examination

While our training is designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to pass the CCW qualification testing, we highly encourage clients to prepare for their examination. This can be achieved by practicing with your firearm(s) by shooting the applicable County mandated course of fire. By doing so, you will become more familiar with your weapon and increase your chances of success during the testing process.

CCW Permit Prep Course

It is essential to note that CCW permit qualification testing is not a handgun training course. If you require specific handgun training help for CCW permit purposes, we offer a separate CCW Permit Prep Course. This course is designed to help you by providing you with the necessary preparatory training skills and knowledge to confidently handle and carry a concealed weapon, ensuring that you are fully prepared for the CCW qualification testing.

Conclusion

At Butters Firearms Instruction, we are committed to providing our clients with the highest quality CCW qualification testing and training. By meeting the mandated Senate Bill 2 (SB2) hours of training, offering a private range and targets, and providing course completion certificates, we ensure that our clients are well-prepared and confident in their firearm handling abilities. We encourage all clients to prepare for their examination and, if needed, to enroll in our CCW Permit Prep Course for additional handgun training.
