North Carolina Concealed Carry Handgun Class
Shooters,
The following is the class schedule for my upcoming NC Concealed Carry Handgun
Class:
NO DECEMBER CLASS...Merry Christmas!
January 13th 2024
This is a one-day
class
You do not have to be 21
to attend the class but you do have to be 21 to receive a NC Concealed Carry
Handgun Permit.
You do not have to live
in Polk County, NC to take the class but you will submit your application to
the Sheriff in the county of your residency.
The class portion will
last from 8am to 4pm. We will take a 30min break around lunchtime.
Range time will be directly after the classroom portion and certificates will
be handed out to those who pass. On average we end the day around 6PM. Please keep
in mind that we train to a standard and not a time therefore some classes may
run a little longer so plan accordingly.
Inclement weather plan:
We will shoot in light rain so dress accordingly with the weather forecast.
However, if there is lightning or HEAVY rain, we will postpone the range
portion and plan another date to qualify.
The class will be held
at:
Gunner's Haven also known as Gunner's Custom Holsters
2060 Lynn Road
Valley Plaza Suite #5
Columbus, NC 28722
Cost of the class is
$75.00
This payment is
nonrefundable/transferable as you are reserving a seat another person could
have.
Due to the nature of the
course, there are some requirements that must be met in order to participate:
- Please wear long pants
- Close-toed shoes or
boots- NO sandals
- NO low-cut shirts due
to the potential hazard of hot brass going down one's shirt.
- Pen and notebook for
use in the classroom portion
- Ear and eye
protection. Prescription Glasses can be used as eye protection. I also have Ear
/ Eye protection available in my Gun Shop needed.
- Personally-owned
handgun. This can be either a revolver or a semi-automatic pistol. NO rifles,
shotguns, or submachine guns.
- If you do not have a
handgun, you can rent one from my shop; pistol and ammunition for $15.00
- You will need an
outside-the-waistband OR inside-the-waistband holster for your pistol. I have a
few holsters that you can borrow or purchase if needed.

Revolvers.
