What You'll Learn

During this course of instruction, you will learn the required curriculum to satisfy the NC State requirements to obtain a concealed carry permit and much more. This course is eight solid hours of classroom learning starting at 8:00am with additional time allocated for required live fire at the range. You must pass the written exam and the range qualification to be issued a certificate. Given the nature of this class, it is advised that you have some experience with firearms. However, if you are brand new gun owner you are certainly more than welcome to sign up. I will do everything I can to help you succeed and start you down the path of responsible gun ownership.
Please ensure you bring the following to class; - 50 rounds of factory ammunition for the firearm you plan to use for qualification. No handloads/remanufactured ammunition please. I will have ammunition available to purchase if needed. - A firearm, preferably the one you wish to carry,
and an appropriate holster for that firearm. If you do not have a firearm yet I have handguns to rent. - Appropriate apparel to meet weather conditions for the day of the class. My range is an outdoor range so please make sure you are prepared. We shoot rain or sunshine. Lightning or severe weather are exceptions and will be addressed at the time of the class. - Any snacks you desire and/or non-alcoholic beverage. We will have sodas and water available and we will provide lunch.
- Eye protection and Ear protection appropriate for firearm training.
- Sunscreen - Bug Spray - Pen and paper

I want this to be safe, excellent learning experience for all my students and want you to leave feeling you are received an excellent education.

The cost of this class is $65. Active duty Military, Law Enforcement, First Responders, Teachers and Veterans get a discount. Contact me for details.

Thank you for considering Tango Down Tactical for your training needs.
