With six hours of intensive interactive coursework and an additional two hours dedicated to range time for shooting and training, our course fully satisfies the prerequisites for applying for the Tennessee Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit. Throughout this comprehensive program, participants will gain proficiency in handling both revolvers and semi-automatic pistols.
Here’s what you can expect to learn in our course:

- Continued Skill Development: Engage in ongoing opportunities to refine your shooting skills and enhance proficiency.

- Navigating Legal and Ethical Considerations: Gain insight into the legal and ethical responsibilities associated with carrying and using a firearm in self-defense situations.
Please note the following logistics for the course:
- A 30-minute lunch break is provided. Participants have the option to bring their lunch or dine out, but the timeframe is non-negotiable and cannot be extended.
- Class capacity is limited to 20 students, with a minimum enrollment requirement of 5 students for the class to proceed.
Essential materials include:
- a minimum of 100 rounds of ammunition (although up to 70 rounds may suffice, depending on caliber, location, and student),
- an unloaded and cased firearm (bring your own or rent one of ours), and
- personal eye and ear protection (bring your own or purchase on-site).
All Range Rules apply.
