NRA BASIC PISTOL COURSE

This is the NRA Basic Pistol Course. This nationally recognized course is recognized by Virginia for Concealed Carry Permits, and by Maryland for the Handgun Qualification License (HQL). We must allow a three week window for supplies, and registration via the NRA Instructor Portal.

The course is 8 hours, broken into two parts. The first part of the course is classroom instruction. The second part, the instructor meets with no more than three students at the gun range for the live portion of the course. This course has two tests. You must pass both tests to receive your certificate. The first test is the written exam to test your knowledge of presented material during the classroom portion. The second test is on the range to ensure you know how to properly handle a firearm and successfully qualify per NRA certification standards.  

The course includes a small fee for the Square processing fee.
