The qualifications of this course comply with the Federal Law; HR-218 (Law Enforcement Officer’s Safety Act).   The qualification card given upon completion can be used as identification to show the person who qualified, has met the letter of the law, with regard to the carry of weapons in all fifty states of the United States America, its Territories and Commonwealths.
The course takes approximately two and a half hours to complete. We first go over weapon safety, then discuss the course of fire (Fifty Round D.C.J.S. Certified Course). Once that is finished we review the HR-218 requirements of the Federal Bill so you know what is expected of you when carrying your weapon out of state. Participants will then go down range for the qualification (minimum of seventy percent). After qualification a photo identification card is issued to the retired officer. This issued card and their police identification card is required to be carried when they are armed. The cost of this program is seventy-five dollars ($75.00) (Revolver or Semi-Auto). This course can be combined with the N.Y.S. Security Guard Annual Firearms renewal course for a discounted price. ($150)

All participants are REQUIRED to bring their Retired Police ID card, Pistol License, Weapon of Choice, Magazines, Holster and 50 rounds of Ammunition.
