The midlands of South Carolina's best concealed weapons permit classes

803 361-3742

We encourage student participation. Please do not expect a lecture. Your experiences are important to us, and will always offer an important aspect to our class. Safety is ALWAYS paramount, but we have FUN while learning, and sharing experiences.

Since you will need to fire your handgun and qualify with it, we complete this portion of our class at an outdoor range near the Hotel. We feel the outdoor range is best because of the natural settings and because your neighbors’ gun noise is quickly dispersed in the atmosphere, as opposed to firing in a small restrictive compartment at an indoor range.

Your total cost for this course is $75.00, ($85.00 weekends) cash, personal check or certified check/money orders payable to James D. Jones.

Training includes all range fees, targets, handouts and course material, including a Certificate of Training as designed by SLED and a NRA Certificate of Training.

We offer classes each month - both weekday & weekends!

Our classes are conducted in Columbia, S.C. in a comfortable environment usually at a local Hotel conference room, in a family setting. We are also contracted to teach at multiple business locations in theColumbia area, which provide the classroom and facilities for our classes. A continental breakfast is available for a minimal fee. Free coffee and drinks are available at some locations.
