Live Fire Qualification Included
Live-fire qualification is an important part of obtaining or renewing a California Concealed Carry Weapon permit. Depending on the county, the shooting course may require approximately 18 to 50 or more rounds fired from distances between 3 and 15 yards. Many agencies require an overall score of at least 80%, although the exact course of fire and passing standard may vary.
The qualification may evaluate:
- Accuracy at multiple shooting distances
- Proper muzzle and trigger-finger discipline
- Controlled firing under timed conditions
- Safe magazine changes and reloads
- Drawing from a holster when required
- Shooting on a B-27 or comparable qualification target
- Safe handling of every firearm being added to the permit
Students should arrive with the firearms, ammunition and equipment required by their county or issuing agency.
