The CCW Initial course spans a full day from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., balancing 5–8 hours of state-mandated classroom instruction with hands-on experience.

Green Valley Range supplies targets, ear, and eye protection, and offers firearm rentals if needed, making this an accessible option regardless of your equipment or experience level. Note that the course does not cover basic shooting fundamentals, so beginners should consider a private lesson before signing up.

The desert backdrop, with its rugged rocky spires and shimmering heat mirages, reminds shooters of Nevada’s unique environment, where firearm awareness can literally be a life skill.
The Renewal course is a concise half-day refresher required every few years, ensuring that permit holders keep their skills sharp and knowledge up to date. Fees cover instruction and range time, but do not include mandatory sheriff’s fees for fingerprinting and background checks, so plan accordingly.
