Firearm Training & Permit Resources
New York State requires concealed carry applicants who are subject to the state training requirement to complete an 18-hour firearm safety training course. The required curriculum consists of 16 hours of classroom instruction and 2 hours of live-fire training.
The course covers topics including firearm safety, secure storage, conflict de-escalation, suicide prevention, use of force, and applicable New York State and federal firearm laws. Students must also complete the required live-fire component.
Delaney’s Guns offers the 18-hour training course over two 9-hour training days. Both days must be completed in order to receive documentation of course completion.
Firearm licensing requirements can vary depending on permit type and licensing jurisdiction. Applicants should verify the requirements that apply to their individual circumstances with their local licensing authority.
Students must be 21 years of age or older and legally eligible to possess firearms under New York State and federal law.
Official guidance and current information regarding New York State firearm laws and training requirements can be found through the New York State Police and other official state resources.
We strongly recommend reviewing current official guidance before registering or submitting a permit application.
