Basic Pistol Class Schedule, Saturday & Sunday

Our NRA Basic Pistol Course (for beginners with no firearms training) will begin at 9:00 AM, regardless of which day you sign up for.  This class is the first of two (2) courses needed to obtain your Concealed Carry permit in Illinois.  The Saturday and Sunday classes are identical in curriculum.  Call us if you would like more detailed information on what’s available.
