Basic Self Defense Class 

This is the class you need if you want to apply for a Nevada concealed weapons permit. This is also the best class for the beginner with handguns, even if you are not interested in getting a permit. If you are really new to this, we make sure you get the attention you need to make you comfortable and confident.

Ladies, there are always other ladies in the class. We go out of our way to make sure you are comfortable in our classes. We can also do a special ladies only class for you and your friends. Contact us for details.

This is an 8 hour class, with about 6 hours of classroom followed by another 2 hours of shooting exercises. 

This class will also enable you to apply for a Florida concealed weapons permit in addition to Nevada and is included. Utah certification is also available with this class, $25 additional fee per person. See the Utah & Florida Info link for more info. With the NV and FL permit you can carry in 34 states currently, or 19 states with the NV permit alone.

See the reciprocity page link in the left column to see what states honor these permits.

The state mandated qualification takes 30 rds for each gun. Reloads OK.
If you bring about 100 rounds, we will do some practical training after the qualification, if you want to participate. Not required.

Extra magazines or speedloaders useful, not mandatory.
Holster if you have one, also not mandatory.
Clothes for the weather, a hat is good.  Our classes go on rain or shine.
Lunch if you want it, we have a microwave at the training center you can use.
