CCW Candidates and Live Fire Examinations
« on: December 07, 2022, 09:13:53 AM »
There are posts being shared about companies that were certified by HPD to conduct classes and live fire examinations.

Where do the candidates who sign up go to take the live fire exam?  HPD range?  The two indoor ranges one in Waipahu and the other one in Kakaako?

Or do these companies have private ranges on their property?

Just curious.  Plus wondering if they can practice before taking the test.....
Sometimes you gotta know when to save your bullets.

At least one is conducting the live fire session at a private range (per their posts).  Recommend asking around and get more info on who is providing the class, then choose someone you feel comfortable with.

Since the qual is 25rds, 1 box of ammo you have to pay for will cover for 2 pistols.  Since no one sells half a box (50rds).  What you could also do is split the cost with another student.

808GC this past weekend was $40 for box of 50rds 9mm and $17.50 range fee.

He was supposed to post on Monday, but I think he's wants to do everything at once. Like website up and running. I'll keep you posted.  I'm sure he will appreciate your support. People have no idea the amount of hours he spends fighting for our rights and pushing the law to clarify gray areas at risk to himself.
