More about the class

This is the eight-hour safety course required by the State of Tennessee* to obtain the Enhanced handgun carry permit (HCP). Tennessee does not require a permit to merely own a firearm (for example, if you keep one in your home). However, if you want to carry a firearm on your person out in public, you’ll need a permit.

Unlike the Concealed ONLY permit, the enhanced permit carries with it the reciprocity in other states while the concealed only one does not.

We will provide:

  • Uncompromising adherence to safety protocols
  • Small classes with low student-teacher ratios
  • Patient instructors who can relate to new and non-traditional shooters
  • Attention to detail and individualized instruction
  • A non-intimidating atmosphere
  • Extra attention to fundamentals and practical application
  • Primary focus on self-defense contexts (as opposed to hunting, sporting, or competition)
  • Ultimate respect for students’ time, priorities, and motivations

We understand that this will be many people’s very first firearms training class, so we go out of our way to make it a positive experience. We also want our HCP class to be the safest in the state.

You will need the following:

  • A handgun
  • Eye and ear protection
  • 50 rounds of ammunition

We encourage you to bring your own gear for the best experience, however we do have all of these items for rent or purchase.

Basic handgun knowledge is required for this class. If you don't know the basics, ask about our private lessons. We'd be happy to teach you all about guns and how to shoot them.
