The NRA CCW course is specifically designed to meet the minimum requirements of all the different states, which issue Concealed Carry permits. In it, the course covers 10 different classroom lessons. This class satisfies the initial MD Wear and Carry Training requirements.
MD Wear and Carry Initial Training Requirements:
Hours: 16
Description: This course meets the minimum curriculum of instruction in the training and use of handguns as prescribed by the Superintendent of the Maryland State Police, pursuant to COMAR, SECTION 29.03.02.05 of the annotated code of Maryland.
This is a two day course of both classroom and live-fire pistol qualification. Students must qualify with a score of 70% or better on the Maryland State Police Basic Pistol Handgun Course to receive their course completion certificate. Students will leave with an understanding of carry procedures, legal issues and use of deadly force.
Material covered in the Classroom include:
Maryland State Firearm Law
Live Fire Session:
Reasons for non-issuance of course completion certificates include, but are not limited to:
Hands-on shooting is designed to give you the tools required to successfully qualify for a Maryland Handgun permit. Successfully passing this course will not necessarily guarantee your approval for a wear and carry permit.
MD Wear and Carry RENEWAL Training is day two of the course:
Hours: 8 (Day 2 only)
Bring the pistol you intend to Wear & Carry, make sure it is clean, lubricated and functioning beforehand. The pistol should be a dedicated wear & carry self-defense pistol in a self-defense caliber (minimum 9mm or .38spl), and not be a “target”, or training pistol.
You should bring your pistols operators manual and a basic pistol cleaning kit. NOTE: Please leave all firearms and ammunition in your vehicles until directed to retrieve them for the Classroom and/or Range.
Special arrangements can be made if you do not own an appropriate pistol if requested in advance. Bring 300 rounds of factory fresh ammunition. Of the 300 rounds at least 25 should be the Personal Defense Ammunition (JHP,) you intend to carry should you receive MD State W&C Permit approval, (unless you have previously shot your Personal Defense Ammunition and are confident with its feeding reliability.) If your handgun is new or you haven't fired it for a while, remember that put a pistol should never be used for personal defense until it has had at least 200-300 rounds cycled through it.
You must have a proper fitting strong-side hip holster, that securely attaches to your belt, specific to the model of your pistol, to perform the drawing from concealment exercises we will practice. Soft nylon or holsters with a loose safety strap do not allow repeated safe re-holstering and are not allowed. If you do not have a proper holster, you will not be able to perform the exercises beyond the MD State Mandated W&C Qualification Course, which requires only shooting from the low-ready position and has no drawing from a holster. If this is the case, you will not receive the nationally recognized NRA CCW Certification.
Bring a light cover garment (center zipped light jacket, zipped hoodie or center button long sleeve shirt) for the drawing from concealment drills.
Fundamental Rule – There is no live ammunition allowed in the classroom or in the same location as pistol cleaning or dry-fire practice.
Lunch will be provided (ordered in from a local restaurant).
