THE PROOF

Hands‑On Live‑Fire Proficiency

The class includes a required handgun safety review followed by a live‑fire qualification; students must be proficient with firearms to participate, though rentals are available for those who need them.

If you arrive without your LTC certificate there is a $15 fee; if you qualify without the paper, the complete certificate will be emailed within 48 hours.

What the day feels like

How the two‑hour session unfolds

The session is compact and procedural: verification that you completed the online LTC classroom, a focused 1–2 hour handgun safety course, then a live‑fire proficiency check on the range. The format is designed to confirm both knowledge and practical ability — students must already be proficient, and those who are not are encouraged to take introductory classes first.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this session suits—and who should prepare differently.

1
Experienced ShootersA direct fit: the class is aimed at shooters who can reliably handle and operate a handgun and want to complete the LTC step 2 live‑fire requirement.
2
LTC ApplicantsIdeal for applicants who have completed the online LTC classroom portion and need the in‑person safety and live‑fire qualification to finish the process.
3
New ShootersNot recommended unless you first attend an intro course; the class assumes basic firearm proficiency and expects students to perform a live‑fire qualification.
4
