Frequently asked questions
Below are some of the most common questions
regarding firearms instruction and gun safety.
1. What is the best course to start with for someone completely new to firearms?
We would say that any of the NRA Basic courses would be your best starting point. They are simple but in depth basic courses. They offer an online and in person hybrid course that we can teach.
2.What courses are required before purchasing a firearm in the state of Maryland?
Maryland Handgun Qualification Course (MD HQL).
3. What types of firearms do you provide for at-home firearms instruction?
Currently, for courses requiring “live fire”, we can only provide training for pistol and AR style rifles. However, every firearm can be taught at the basic mechanical level at home and then when ready to progress to “live fire” we can head to the range for firearms such as the shotgun.
4. Are there age restrictions on who can receive firearms instruction in the state of Maryland?
The only age restriction is for the MD HQL or the MD Concealed Carry which would be 21+.
5. Do you offer courses specific to women learning firearms safety?
We do not offer a women’s defense course at this time, but will have one in the future. Generally, women’s specific courses pertain to self defense and concealed carry. Our courses are for Basic knowledge and fundamentals which are needed to progress to the self defense aspect of firearms training.
