Description

Greetings Concealed Carry Students!

Thank you for signing up for Firearm Mentor's concealed carry class.

Here is what you will need to bring to class:

  1. Your FOID card (or driver's license, if you have not received the FOID in the mail).
  2. Two outer garments (a pullover/sweatshirt and an open front button down shirt or jacket).  We will be learning to draw a firearm from concealment while wearing those two types of clothing.
  3. A firearm and holster (IF OWNED).  Please do not buy a gun and holster specifically for class.  I have plenty for students to use and train with.  Also, by spending time together, I can help you pick a firearm that is right for you, following the class, and direct you to dealers with the best pricing and service.
  4. A belt.  Since we will be drawing a firearm from concealment, you will need a belt as a platform for a holster.
There will be two vendors who will come to class:

  • Above Biometrics:  Above Biometrics offers fingerprinting services ($65) and application processing ($40) at additional fees, payable to them.
  • Right to Bear:  Right to Bear will present their program of concealed carry prepaid legal, in case you get involved in a self defense incident.

These two services are optional, and I bring in these experts as a service to you.  If you use their services, they will collect payments.

On Day 2, the shooting portion will be conducted one at a time.  Firearm rentals and ammunition for the class only can be added on for $15.  The rental gun is a Glock 44 or Taurus TX22 in .22 lr.

I realize that was A LOT of information.  If you haven't checked out my website (www.firearmmentor.com), please do so.  After class is over, I will email you a summary of the laws.

In the meantime, please email me with any firearms or legal related questions.  I am always available.

I look forward to seeing you at the class.  

Sincerely,

Marcus Melnick
