I believe the cost of our course is reasonable for our area at $85.  We include everything you will need to apply for your SC CWP

permit. This includes the application, SLED mandated course, target, the use of a gun, Holster, 60 rounds of ammo and the use of a private shooting area. The SLED background check cost is separate.

SLED requires a $50 fee for their background check and processing. You will need to schedule an appointment with Identogo after class to complete the process. The SLED fee will be paid to Identogo . They will fingerprint you and process your application.

$85 cash or personal check to cover the course fee.  We work through lunch so bring your lunch.
