This is why Nevada Firearms Academy & Range exists today. Our passion for training students in the Reno/Tahoe community has been our foundation for over 25 years. So, whether you are new to the shooting sports community or a seasoned professional, we have the training available for you with many more options coming in 2023.
NEVADA CCW | PISTOL I COURSE
Our CCW | Pistol I course is our most sought-after class. The State of Nevada requires eight hours of instruction by a licensed firearm instructor to qualify for application of your CCW. First, we conduct the classroom portion for two hours in our on-site classroom going over Federal laws, Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) laws, and real-world scenario discussions. Then we go to our outdoor range where we spend six hours going through different shooting evolutions designed to teach an individual who has never shot before, yet increase skill sets for intermediate to advanced shooters. The first hour we focus on firearm safety, handgun components, functions, stance, draw stroke, grip, sight picture/sight alignment, breathing, and trigger control. The last five hours is spent going through shooting evolutions that are real-world scenario based. During this time, you will fire between 150-200 rounds of ammunition on a standard B27 target while learning and having fun at the same time. We promise. Our curriculum is rated #1 in the nation per Senator Thune (R-SD) and former Senator Vitter (R-LA) who are using it as a template for national reciprocity. We offer both one- and two-day options with multiple classes available each month. See our Training Calendar for availability.

PISTOL II COURSE
This course begins where our Pistol I leaves off. Unlike Pistol I, there is no classroom portion. We start on the range. After working on a few small skills sets we roll immediately into moving and shooting, shooting from a knee, and slowly incorporate barricades and steels within our evolutions. Because of the intermediate to advanced nature of this curriculum, our preference is that we’ve shot with you before in the Pistol I class so that we know your ability and preferred teaching style as we move fast through each evolution. We throw a lot of lead in a condensed amount of time (six hours on the range) and knowing you can keep up is key. Remember, safety never takes a holiday.
