Classroom
Minnesota Permit to Carry/Renewal - Expect to spend at least four hours in the classroom for the Minnesota Permit to Carry. You will receive a student packet to follow along with the presentation. We encourage you to ask questions and provide input into the class experience.
After the classroom session, the law requires that all permit candidates must pass a shooting proficiency test. You will be evaluated on proficiency and safe handling of the handgun.
North Dakota Permit to Carry Class I & II - North Dakota requires the applicant successfully complete an open book test (one hour to complete) prior to applying for the 5 year permit. You will be provided with the North Dakota Permit to Carry Manual in the classroom. You can download this manual prior to the class. Class I participants will go to the range at the end of the day.
