The students should bring a firearm (revolver or semi-automatic – please no single action revolvers), eye and ear protection, 1 box of ammo, and 3 magazines if you have them.

There are several variations depending upon your situation. The state gives credit for certain previous training. You can find their current list of approved credit at here. You can have a maximum of 8 hours credit allowing you skip our Phase 1. If you have over 8 hours of credit, you will still need to take Phase 2.

Some examples of credits and your options:
1. You don’t have any credit –You will need to take Phase 1 and Phase 2. As an option you can take the NRA Basic Pistol (8 hours) in place of Phase 1 or you can take Utah CCW (4 hours) plus the Phase 1B (4 hours) in place of Phase 1.
2. You have an Illinois Hunter Safety Card – You can either take the Utah CCW or Phase 1B.
3. You have a Utah CCW – You can take Phase 1B (4 hours).
4. You have a DD214 and/or you are prior law enforcement – You need to take Phase 2 even if you have other additional credits.
5. You have a Florida CCW with a class certificate as proof – You can either take the Utah class or Phase 1B.
6. You have taken the Chicago Illinois Firearms Safety Course – You can either take the Utah class or Phase 1B. The class certificate from either Phase 1 or Phase 2 will also be accepted to apply for your Florida CCW. We often offer the Florida packets including application, photo, and ink fingerprints to our students during the Phase 2 class for only $5. If you are new to shooting, or don’t shoot often, then we suggest you take the NRA Basic Pistol class in place of Phase 1. The classes are kept smaller for more personal guidance and it gives more detailed information of firearms as well as incorporating both dry firing and range time in preparation for the Illinois CCW range qualification.
