Covid-19 Panic Update – Wyoming concealed carry class

*Until the government allows you, and our firm, to evaluate and manage our own risk, we are in a tough position and can not reasonably offer you our traditional Wyoming concealed carry class. We have created solutions though because after all, that is what productive free market capitalists do! 🙂

Successful completion of our “Pistol Pro” class is accepted by the State government in Wyoming as “proof of firearms familiarization.” Pistol Pro is the CCW option we have for now, and it is a great option! Bring your handgun & ammunition and enjoy a two-hour private pistol lesson taught by a world class instructor. When you sign up, you will receive free access to our Online CFP course as well!

How much ammo is needed to quality?

25 rounds. (When attending a CFP class, we require that we observe you safely and efficiently fire at least 50 shots. Because of the ammunition shortage of 2020/2021 due to statist actions, we have reduced this standard to 25 shots. If and when a box of 9mm costs less than .5 gram of AU, we will return to our 50 shot minimum.)

Future of our Traditional Concealed Carry Class – Pistol Pro

***Due to government dictates, our renowned traditional Concealed Firearms Permit (CFP) course’s normal schedule was disrupted. With current anti-social distancing requirements, we have a maximum classroom capacity of 3 non-household members rather than our normal 8-12 person classes. We would have to increase prices for our traditional class price from $150/person to $450/person to make it doable for us. We will have to wait until the whole covid-panic stuff calms down to again offer our traditional course. As you might suspect, our CCW – CFP classes have never been a “money-maker” for us, we have offered them because we want our neighbors to be safe.

We hope to make it available a few times each year (as soon as county and state rulers allow)

This is a perfect 9am to 5pm Wyoming concealed carry class for people seeking a state-issued concealed firearms permit (CFP) allowing the holder of the permit to keep and bear arms. Government rules require “proof of firearms familiarization.” Class schedule will be posted HERE.

People seeking a Wyoming CFP have very minimal State requirements for proof of firearms familiarization. We provide greater value by teaching more than just the basics of firearms familiarization. We also teach about legal aspects, ethical & moral aspects, situational awareness, prevention and defensive tactics. We provide live-fire instruction to help you be more confident and improve your skills. This class will help you decide if you want the responsibility of using protective tools, and will empower you to make peaceful choices, using violent defense only as a last resort.

This Wyoming Concealed Carry class meets and exceeds Wyoming State Statute’s requirements for a CFP. It is designed to build a foundation from which students can properly hone their skills in order to better protect themselves and their families from knife violence, gun violence and other forms initiated violence. This is NOT an NRA class, but is taught by NRA Certified Instructors as required by Wyoming law.

Wyoming CCW FAQ’s

Will I get a Wyoming CCW Permit at the end of class?

This class does not “issue a permit.” Wyoming CCW permits are issued by the State of Wyoming through the Attorney General’s office by way of the County Sheriff in the county where you have been a resident for at least 6 months. The Teton County Sheriff’s Office website is HERE. The Attorney General’s CCW info is HERE.

Our Wyoming CCW class meets the requirements of Appropriate Firearms Training according to Wyoming State Statute 6-8-104(b)(vii)(d).

Should I buy a gun before the Wyoming CCW Class?

Some of our students like to attend class before making a purchase. You may use dozens of our guns at no additional cost if you bring the ammunition. We suggest bringing 9mm & 45 ACP.

To save some money, 100 of the cartridges you bring may be .22 Caliber CCI Mini-Mag. Many of your fellow students will also allow you to try their guns. This concealed carry class is a great opportunity to test many makes, models and calibers before making your purchase. If you already own a defensive handgun that you like, please bring it and become even more familiar with it!

How much ammunition should I bring?

You will need at least 100 rounds of ammunition, 150 is better.

Can you carry a loaded gun in Wyoming?

Residents may carry open or concealed without a permit however, permits are issued to those who wish to have them. Non-residents are required to have a CCW permit from a state Wyoming recognizes if they wish to carry concealed.

What are the laws regarding open carry in Wyoming?

What should I do to prepare for this Wyoming concealed carry class?

This class has been designed for students without any shooting experience AND those with experience that need to meet Wyoming State requirements for a CCW. You do not NEED to do anything before class as we will begin with basics. If you already have a gun, bring it.

Bring clothing that is good for indoor and outdoor training. You may “taste test’ over 2 dozen of our guns at no additional cost, please just bring ammunition, we suggest 9mm Luger & .45ACP. You will shoot at least 50 rounds.

If you DO want to do some preparation, a video like THIS ONE is a good primer, but again, it is not necessary.

Lunch

Please bring a sack lunch or a crockpot or whatever you like. We will provide water and coffee etc. There is a refrigerator & microwave in our Wyoming concealed carry class classroom for your use.
