Gun sales and gun permit applications are at an all time high. Many states that issue concealed carry permits mandate that CCW applicants provide proof of completion of a minimum firearms safety training curriculum. However, if you carry or intend to carry a handgun for personal protection, you owe it to yourself and those you love to obtain a level of training that will enable you to develop measurable competence in firearms handling and precision defensive shooting. We are proud to announce that Personal Defense Solutions will now be scheduling training classes to prepare students to develop such competence.

The first level of training will be provided in our Defensive Handgun I Class. This course is designed to put the responsible adult handgun owner on the fast track to developing competence in using a handgun for personal protection. After taking our training, you will have learned the essential knowledge, skills and abilities to prepare you to successfully handle nearly any personal protection situation. These are skills you cannot afford not to know if you own and carry a gun.

Florida and Virginia Multi-State CCW Permits: This 6-hour training class way exceeds the minimum training requirements for these CCW permits. All graduates of this 6-hour class can sign up for just the paperwork portion of one of our 29 State Concealed Carry Permit Classes if they haven’t already done it. If you notify us in advance, we can provide you with the Florida and Virginia CCW Permit application packets.
