Further information for the NJ CCW Class:
We strive to provide the best possible training experience for each and every student we work with. We believe that clarity and transparency are of the utmost importance with respect to our course requirements.
Based on the questions we’ve received from past students, we want to provide some clarity on this course:
NJ’s training standard requires a lecture on safety, shooting fundamentals and a NJ specific law review. Since our 18-hour students + current pistol permit holders have received the required safety and fundamentals lectures, we will be completing an approx. 1 hour, State of New Jersey specific law review. There is no written test. For the live fire qualification portion of the course, students will be required to:
-
Demonstrate safe and proficient pistol handling throughout; including safe loading, unloading, drawing, malfunction clearance and re-holstering.
- Demonstrate the ability to follow ALL instructions and range commands.
- Demonstrate marksmanship skills and score 80% (40 out of 50 rounds) on the course of fire which is 10 rounds (2 strings of 5 rounds) at each of 3 yards, 5 yards, 7 yards, 10 yards, and 15 yards.
- At the end of the course of fire, clear all weapons and holster a safe and empty weapon.
Students will be given basic explanation of the course of fire. Once the live fire course starts, no coaching or assistance will be given. This is a qualification that requires more skill from participants than the NY course does.
What this means is that if you do not meet the standard for any of the above skills, you will be disqualified and no passing course certificate will be given. Any and all safety violations will result in the removal of the offending person from the range. There will be no second chances.
This is a “Go/No Go” exercise. Those who pass WILL receive a certificate that can be submitted to NJ with their application.
We are advising all participants that if you are NOT prepared to meet these standards to postpone your qualification until you believe you can meet them. If you have concerns about this or additional questions, please let us know ASAP.
Additionally, we want to be clear that each participant is required to apply for the NJ non-resident permit independently of this course. We will provide guidelines for for the NJ application process to all participants.
