Firearms Training

Cintas has teamed up with the Center for Personal Protection and Safety, a leading developer of workplace violence prevention training. Instruction includes categories of workplace violence, myths surrounding violence in the workplace, identifying areas of concern, active shooter training.

At Bristlecone, we’ve worked hard to create a non-intimidating, a-political, and all-inclusive environment for our students. From the classroom to the range, our goal is to provide “An Extraordinary Recreational Experience” for shooters of all ages and calibers to bring their shooting skills.

This class is required by North Carolina to obtain the Concealed Carry Handgun Permit in order to legally carry a concealed handgun in public.  This class is comprised of eight hours of mandatory classroom training with additional time spent on the range for a shooting practical.

We offer the course Saturday, from 8am-2pm. Occasionally, we will offer a class on an alternate day, so call ahead for availability. There is a maximum number of twelve students in each class, which are held in our on site classroom.

This course will qualify you to apply for your NC concealed carry handgun permit. This training course is in two parts, and includes 8 hours of in-class instruction, written test, and live fire range qualification.
