Sign Up for Concealed Carry Training at Randolph Community College

Randolph Community College is offering two different levels of Concealed Carry courses for students during the spring semester through its Corporate and Continuing Education Division. The 12-hour (two-day) class is recommended for students who have limited or no experience in handling handguns. The 8-hour (one-day) class is recommended for those who are already experienced with handguns. Both classes will meet the educational requirements so the student can apply for a North Carolina concealed carry handgun permit. The registration fee is $47.

The 12-hour (two-day) class is scheduled for April 8 and 10. The class will meet from 6-10 p.m. on Thursday, April 8, and from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. on Saturday, April 10. It includes handgun safety, use of lethal force, and proficiency testing, and participants will get additional time on the weapons range firing their weapons. Supplies needed for the 12-hour class are a handgun, 120 rounds of ammunition, and a holster worn on your waist, secured by a belt.

The next 8-hour (one-day) class is scheduled for Saturday, May 1, from 8 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Supplies needed for the 8-hour class are a handgun and 50 rounds of ammunition.

In addition, a 12-hour women's only Concealed Carry class has been scheduled for 6-10 p.m., Thursday, May 20, and 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Saturday, May 22.

To sign up for one of these classes, call 336-633-4165. The classes will be held at Randolph Community College's Emergency Services Training Center, 895 Training Center Drive, just outside of Asheboro.
