south carolina concealed Wespons Permit class

      Although a permit is no longer required to carry a firearm in South Carolina, you should consider getting a Concealed Carry Permit. Why? The main reason is the class gives you a good understanding of the laws around deadly force and self defense 

  Our class includes information that goes beyond the South Carolina requirements to obtain a CWP such as scenario-based training, discussion of "typical" use of deadly force, legal aspects of interacting with police after an incident, drawing from concealment and proper techniques for concealment. This class is comprised of about 5 hours of classroom instruction with one additional hour (may be less or more time) spent on the range where each student will demonstrate the safe operation and handling of a handgun.   If this is your first handgun experience, we highly recommend you take the NRA basic pistol class before taking the South Carolina CWP class or you take our "Enhanced CWP Training."
