What You'll Learn
NEW! - After passing this class and getting your CCW, you will no longer need to take a background check at most gun stores.
This is a high quality CCW qualification course at an indoor air conditioned facility with an adjacent outdoor firing range. The total cost of this course is $70 but that includes a $20 store credit to purchase the ammunition you will need (40 rounds)
Owning a firearm is a fundamental right protected by the Constitution — but exercising that right responsibly requires more than just purchasing a gun and carrying it. Without proper training, you risk making a decision in a high-stakes moment that could cost you your freedom, your livelihood, or even someone’s life. That’s why taking a Concealed Carry Weapons (CCW) course is one of the most important steps any gun owner can take. A quality CCW course does more than help you fulfill a legal requirement — it builds the foundation for safe, lawful, and effective firearm ownership. It gives you clarity on complex self-defense laws, insight into how real-life violent encounters unfold, and the mental framework to make decisions under stress. These are not just lessons — they are potentially life-saving tools.
At Practical Tactical, our CCW class is widely recognized for going far beyond Missouri’s basic requirements. We don’t believe in checking boxes — we believe in transforming everyday citizens into informed, responsible, and prepared gun owners. Our course covers the critical legal standards of justified use of force, the five pillars of lawful self-defense, and how to assess threat levels quickly and lawfully. You’ll gain a working understanding of how to avoid conflict, de-escalate dangerous situations, and if necessary, how to act decisively and lawfully to protect yourself and others. We break down the key differences between what’s legal and what’s smart, and how even a justified act of self-defense can go legally wrong if you don’t fully understand the law. This isn’t just about knowing when you can use your firearm — it’s about knowing when you shouldn’t, and how to stay out of court in the first place.
This class is ideal for first-time gun owners looking to understand their rights and responsibilities, as well as seasoned carriers who want to refresh and refine their knowledge. You’ll also learn about the latest updates to Missouri CCW laws, including major advantages like being able to bypass background checks at most gun stores and exemptions from certain federal restrictions — benefits that permitless carriers simply don’t have. Whether you’re protecting your family, yourself, or preparing for a worst-case scenario you hope never happens, the time to educate yourself is before you need to act — not after.
In one day, you’ll walk away not just with a certificate, but with a deeper understanding of the law, the risks, and the mindset it takes to carry a firearm safely and confidently. At Practical Tactical, we don’t just issue permits — we build capable, legally informed, and mentally prepared individuals. If you value your rights, your freedom, and your future, there is no better investment you can make. Sign up for our next CCW course and take the first step toward carrying not just a gun — but true confidence and clarity.
What We'll Teach
Defensive Shooting Fundamentals
This lesson will continue with the basics, including a very visual overview of what we call the “building blocks” or the fundamentals for accurate and safe shooting. Within this lesson, Michael Martin will explain the differences between the skills required for being a good “marksman” at the range, and the skills that might be required to save your life if you are ever the subject of a violent attack.
Additional Notes from Your Instructor
You MUST rsvp on our website. Bring your own firearm or rent one on site. If you are bringing your own firearm, please bring as many magazines as possible.
