Concealed Carry Qualification Class - $49

This class is intended for those individuals who are already familiar with handguns in terms of loading, unloading and the fundamentals of shooting (aiming, trigger control, etc.) and want to apply for a Florida Concealed Weapons and Firearm License (CWFL) (i.e. Concealed Carry License)

Florida requires that individuals applying for a concealed carry license show proof of having attended a gun safety class conducted by an NRA Certified instructor or equivalent.  The class will be 2-3 hours and costs only $49.  Upon completion of this class you will receive a completion certificate that meets the state requirements.

The class will cover the following topics:
  • Firearm Rules of Safety
  • Proper Stance and Grip for shooting
  • Applying for your CWFL
  • Florida laws regarding concealed carry
  • Prohibited locations for carrying concealed
  • Concealed carry insurance
  • Firing several rounds to demonstrate safe gun handling

Note: If you are new to firearms and are not familiar with firearm loading, unloading, safe handling and the fundamentals of shooting, it would be best to enroll in the full Basic Pistol Safety class.  It is a full 6 hours of in-depth instruction including range time and also qualifies you for a CWFL with the completion certificate.  Cost for VSS members is $89, about a third of what you pay for other commercially equivalent classes in the area.
