Concealed Carry Course
2hours
Built around the legal requirements the State of Florida sets for a concealed carry permit. We cover every subject the state requires, and everything else it takes to be a safe gun owner once the permit is in your hand.
Firearmstrainingthat meets you where you are
Six subjects, 48 training topics and 210 classes a year, taught by NRA-certified instructors across three Central Florida locations. Concealed carry, basic pistol, advanced defensive work, home defense and maintenance — in a group class, or one-on-one.
Over 5,000 students trained. Not one review below five stars.
What we teach
Six subjects, from a first day on the range to advanced defensive work. Every one of them is taught to the same standard whether you take it in a group or on your own.
Each subject is drawn against the same rule below. The scale runs to eight hours — the length of the longest class we teach.
Basic Pistol Training
4hours
A comprehensive class that gives you the knowledge and the skills to be comfortable with a firearm and a safe, qualified gun owner. Meets and exceeds Florida concealed carry requirements.
Advanced Pistol Training
8hours
For shooters who want to do more than put holes in paper at a fixed distance. Shooting while moving, working from behind cover, rapid draw, and the decisions that go with them.
The other three
Refresher work, home defense and maintenance. Same instructors, same standard, whether you take them in a group or one-on-one.
Firearms Refresher
2hours
For anyone who trained a while ago, or who wants to sharpen skills they already have. Runs as a group class or one-on-one, and is built around one outcome: being comfortable with the firearm you keep at home.
Home Defense Situations
4hours
A scenario-based class that prepares you for a real event in your own home rather than a lane at the range — where you are, what is behind the target, and what happens next.
Cleaning & Maintenance
1hour
How to look after your firearm. Proper cleaning and care is the difference between a gun that works and a gun that works on the day you need it.
Two ways to
take any of it
Group classes run on a fixed daily schedule. Private sessions run on yours. The same NRA-certified instructors either way.

Why people
train here
Over 5,000 students have come through our classes, and not one of them has left a review below five stars.
In-house certified instructors
Every class is taught by our own NRA-certified instructors, each with years of experience in firearm safety and operation. Nothing is handed off.
Training aids that earn their place
Multiple types of weapon, visual aids and printed material, so a new shooter can see and handle what is being explained before stepping onto the line.
A curriculum that starts with safety
Safety begins with the right attitude and the knowledge to support it. Our instructors make sure you are familiar with every aspect of handling your firearm before anything else.
A firearms specialist on staff
National Safety Center is a licensed dealer as well as a school, so questions about your own firearm get answered in the building.
Three Central Florida locations
The Maitland Training Center, the Mims Training Facility, and the Shoot Straight range in Casselberry. Advanced work runs at Mims.
Classroom work at home or on site
Prefer to take the theory portion at home, or as a group of employees in your own office? We can support that.
