SUMMARY:CCW | Renewal
DESCRIPTION:This 8-Hour course is designed to satisfy the requirements for CCW Renewal issuance in California. Our CCW training certificates are accepted in Stanislaus County\, San Joaquin\, Mariposa County\, Merced County\, and Tuolumne County. \n\nPlease contact your issuing agency before you register with us for qualification.  The issuing agency is under NO obligation to re-issue.\nPlease remember to look into our other training courses as qualifying once every 2 years (state minimum) is NOT enough to keep you prepared and informed for a lethal encounter. DH1 is 1 day\, as is DH2. Each…. a no brainer. A Valley Defense Membership is even better.\n\nKeep in mind that California requires qualification with every firearm you want on your permit.  In our professional opinion\, we strongly suggest only a minimal # of firearms on your permit.  Carry what you are truly proficient with; there’s no benefit to having 5 guns on a permit.  We believe in this so strongly\, that we charge $10 per qualification of all firearms beyond 3. (Qualification for guns #4 and #5 (if applicable) will cost an additional $10 each on top of class tuition.  The first 3 are included in tuition). * Bring $10-$20 cash if you want to qualify with more that 3 firearms. \n*** IMPORTANT NOTE:  THERE IS A QUALIFICATION AFTER A VERY SHORT TRAINING. IT IS A FORMAL TEST REQUIRED BY THE STATE AND COUNTY/CITY AND WE ARE THE PROCTORS. WE ARE TESTING BASED ON THE REQUIREMENTS WE ARE GIVEN. PLEASE UNDERSTAND WE WILL NOT BE DOING ANY TRAINING DURING THE WRITTEN TEST AND NOT DURING QUALIFICATION ON THE RANGE. The whole point is you shouldn’t be practicing to pass a test… You should be practicing to stay alive during the worst moments of your life! We are right here offering to help\, but we can not help you in a test. Please contact us…. we really want to help you! \nWe are unable to keep tabs on which counties are issuing CCW Permits and which are not\, and the changes in their internal operations regarding CCW permits (although we do our best). We have limited information on this topic. Please check with your issuing agency (The LE Agency of the county/city in which you currently reside)\, for the most current information. \nNOTE:  This class is held from beginning to end at our range facility.  There is no lunch service included\, but there are many fast food and dining establishments close by for your 1 hour lunch break. \nCourse Duration:  8 hours (with a lunch break) \nEquipment Needed: \n\n150 rounds of ammunition\, plus 30 rounds for every gun you want on your permit.  Remember\, per State of CA\, you shall qualify with EVERY firearm you want on your permit.\nIn our professional opinion\, we strongly suggest only a minimal # of firearms on your permit.  Carry what you are truly proficient with; there’s no benefit to having 5 guns on a permit.  We believe in this so strongly\, that we charge $10 per qualification of all firearms beyond 3.

SUMMARY:Red Dot Pistol
DESCRIPTION:While red dot optics are not new\, their use on pistols for defensive carry is becoming more popular. They do\, however\, create a learning curve for a shooter transitioning from iron sights. Red dots have advantages and disadvantages that will be discussed in class. We will cover a wide range of subjects including mounting and zeroing the red dot\, making accurate shots using target focus techniques. The most daunting task for the new red dot user is finding the dot. \nWe will explore dot tracking methods\, and target transitions. We will also explore distance shooting with the red dot and the advantages it may provide over iron sights. \nEquipment Needed:\n\nRed dot equipped pistol\nHolster/mag pouches/belt\nHearing and eye protection/ball cap\nRange and weather appropriate clothing\n3 magazines (minimum)\n200 rounds of ammo (minimum)\n\nCourse Duration: 8 Hours

SUMMARY:CCW | Renewal
DESCRIPTION:This 8-Hour course is designed to satisfy the requirements for CCW Renewal issuance in California. Our CCW training certificates are accepted in Stanislaus County\, San Joaquin\, Mariposa County\, Merced County\, and Tuolumne County. \n\nPlease contact your issuing agency before you register with us for qualification.  The issuing agency is under NO obligation to re-issue.\nPlease remember to look into our other training courses as qualifying once every 2 years (state minimum) is NOT enough to keep you prepared and informed for a lethal encounter. DH1 is 1 day\, as is DH2. Each…. a no brainer. A Valley Defense Membership is even better.\n\nKeep in mind that California requires qualification with every firearm you want on your permit.  In our professional opinion\, we strongly suggest only a minimal # of firearms on your permit.  Carry what you are truly proficient with; there’s no benefit to having 5 guns on a permit.  We believe in this so strongly\, that we charge $10 per qualification of all firearms beyond 3. (Qualification for guns #4 and #5 (if applicable) will cost an additional $10 each on top of class tuition.  The first 3 are included in tuition). * Bring $10-$20 cash if you want to qualify with more that 3 firearms. \n*** IMPORTANT NOTE:  THERE IS A QUALIFICATION AFTER A VERY SHORT TRAINING. IT IS A FORMAL TEST REQUIRED BY THE STATE AND COUNTY/CITY AND WE ARE THE PROCTORS. WE ARE TESTING BASED ON THE REQUIREMENTS WE ARE GIVEN. PLEASE UNDERSTAND WE WILL NOT BE DOING ANY TRAINING DURING THE WRITTEN TEST AND NOT DURING QUALIFICATION ON THE RANGE. The whole point is you shouldn’t be practicing to pass a test… You should be practicing to stay alive during the worst moments of your life! We are right here offering to help\, but we can not help you in a test. Please contact us…. we really want to help you! \nWe are unable to keep tabs on which counties are issuing CCW Permits and which are not\, and the changes in their internal operations regarding CCW permits (although we do our best). We have limited information on this topic. Please check with your issuing agency (The LE Agency of the county/city in which you currently reside)\, for the most current information. \nNOTE:  This class is held from beginning to end at our range facility.  There is no lunch service included\, but there are many fast food and dining establishments close by for your 1 hour lunch break. \nCourse Duration:  8 hours (with a lunch break) \nEquipment Needed: \n\n150 rounds of ammunition\, plus 30 rounds for every gun you want on your permit.  Remember\, per State of CA\, you shall qualify with EVERY firearm you want on your permit.\nIn our professional opinion\, we strongly suggest only a minimal # of firearms on your permit.  Carry what you are truly proficient with; there’s no benefit to having 5 guns on a permit.  We believe in this so strongly\, that we charge $10 per qualification of all firearms beyond 3.
