8 HOUR CCW TRAINING

BEST CCW TRAINING

At BEST CCW TRAINING, we are a top-notch training facility offering initial CCW training and renewal CCW training (up to 3 weapons, no additional charge per weapon). Excludes $20 cash range fee.

When it comes down to guns and gun safety, you owe it to yourself to get the very best handgun training course and doing so in a very safe and controlled range environment. When training with BEST CCW Training, you will learn a great wealth of knowledge and skills. Our CCW instructors have a minimum of 20 years of experience as a trainer and/or law enforcement background, with a combined experience of over 140 years in the industry.

Our 24/7 online scheduling calendar will make your scheduling easy... No hassle sign-ups!

While attending an 8 hour CCW Training Course with Best CCW Training you will learn all laws when it comes down to using a gun in self defense, which eliminates "gray areas" that exist for some CCW permit holders that have attended training classes from other instructors without the proper instruction. This includes draw and do not draw scenarios, shoot and do not shoot scenarios, where it is (and where it is not) permissible to carry a gun, the best type of holsters and concealment methods, the best methods for deploying your gun from a holster, what to expect after a self defense shooting, and all laws pertaining to the use of force.

Our CCW training will provide you with the knowledge (and more importantly, in depth discussion of laws and scenarios pertaining to CCW) in which you need to apply on a daily routine to responsibly carry a concealed weapon, as well as maintaining your marksmanship skills.

If you have "handgun" safety and "recent" handgun shooting experience, the CCW qualifications are rather simple if you know your gun. Our training courses prepare you for the real every-day world, and are scenario driven.

BEST CCW Training's indoor classroom instruction is in a professional facility, with plenty of free and safe parking. We do utilize an outdoor private shooting range nearby for live fire drills, qualifications and other exercises. SAFETY IS OUR #1 PRIORITY.

For renewal applicants (with a valid unexpired permit) the 8 hour CCW training will be completed in one day, provided that you demonstrate your ability to use a firearm safely.  The initial CCW training requires 16 hours, and we will complete the training over 2 days (with range and classroom time on both days). For the 2 day course, it can be over a period of time. We have flexible weekday and weekend instruction, as you will see when you click on "schedule your class". We post our calendar on or about the 15th of each month, for the following month.
