This class is required by the State Department of Consumer Affairs, Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) for guards wishing to carry an exposed firearm on duty, armored car guards, armed alarm response agents and private investigators.
This firearm course is a self-defense handgun course that will introduce you to the Fundamentals of Firearms Safety, along with the skills necessary to properly handle a semi-automatic Pistol. You will learn what a handgun will do, what it won’t do, and why it works the way it works. Our hands-on training will start with California Laws, BSIS Policies and Penal Codes in handling a handgun. We further move into Proper Stance and Grip, Sight Alignment, Sight Picture and Trigger Control, 4-count draw, plus Range Safety Rules--the basics of shooting fundamentals. You must bring your duty belt with holster and duty firearm for requalifications.
Once the classroom portion is completed, the range portion of training will take place at Insights Indoor Shooting Range, 17020 Alburtis, Artesia, CA. All range fees, ammunition and firearms are included in the price of the class. Please bring a copy of your guard card and proof of citizenship which can include a birth certificate, passport, resident card, military identification card or DD Form 214. All Security Officers that need requals will shoot first on the range. As a reminder, you must requalified twice a year whether you are currently working as an armed Security Officer or NOT!
