This class is oriented to the Hone Defender or CCW holder and provides fundamental information and introductory skills sets for retaining a handgun inside and outside of a holster.  The student should bring their handgun, holster, a pair of gloves and a garment to cover the handgun.  No ammunition or range gear is necessary as there will be no live fire.  

NJSP - RPO / H.R. 218. Federal (H.R. 218) and NJ State law permits retired police officers to carry firearms. This course of fire and Use of Force review satisfies both the H.R. 218 and NJSP RPO requirements.  This course covers the day and night qualification courses (HQC -60 rds & HNQC - 40 rds).
