What You'll Learn
This is our CPL class that fulfills the Michigan requirements for 5 hours of classroom time and 3 hours of range time. 5 hours may sound like a long time in the classroom, but there are so many things that you need to consider when you start carrying a firearm, and this class will be only the beginning of your concealed carry journey. The goal of this class is to teach you to keep yourself physically, legally, and morally safe while carrying and using a self-defense firearm. We will give you the information you need to get started and answer all of your questions about what carrying a firearm entails.
The shooting portion of this class will be held outdoors. We will shoot in any weather, so please check the forecast and bring appropriate clothing. We will make some accommodations if the weather is particularly bad.
Lunch will not be provided. Make sure you bring snacks and water as well.
Rental guns with ammunition are available for an additional $20 and can be rented at the class. Please let me know in advance if you will be renting a gun, I will need to make arrangements for that.
If you are bringing your own firearm and ammunition, please make sure that your firearm is in serviceable condition and bring 50 rounds of ammunition.
