How does one become qualified by the NRA in something like Basic Pistol Courses or CCW?
Are you looking to teach courses?
Well Id like to be able to if the need arises or if I could possibly do it for extra income or just for friends who needed the course!
You have to go through an NRA Instructors course.
Most Instructors charge $200-300 for the 8 hr course.
I did it about 6 years ago with George Wright in Denver.
How long does that qual last you?
Forever, unless you let it expire.
200-300 for an 8 hour course to be qualified to teach forever? Not too bad!
Do I have to take different CCW classes in different states?
You need to pay every year to keep your credentials. I've been able to pay 3 years at a time recently. The more disciplines you have the more they charge.
They also ask for a student number report so they can kind of have an idea what Instructors are doing and how many students are taking courses. [Beer]
I honestly don't recall how much it cost me last time. I have 6 disciplines to pay for. Check on the NRA web site because I understand from my Training Counselor that there's been some recent changes. [Beer]
