How much will your course cost, approximately? I am interested and might get some time if things at home stay on track.

Hunter's Safety Course thru state is free. I did mine at Wallingford Rod and Gun club up the street from Blue Trails Just a heads up they fill up extremely quick in the spring especially before Turkey Hunting season and in the Fall before Deer Season. Keep a close eye on DEP site for sign up you will need to call the DEP office listed to reserve a spot normally fills up the same week they post updates. Some of them offer one day courses instead of two day I did the one day

We might be able to start teaching it privately to meet the demand, until I hear different, keep an eye on the DEEP sight for class offerings.

I found the online home study guide extremely helpful. I used it before going to the class. Just a heads up this is the link.

I just joined the forum on the advice of a current member.

I'd like to purchase a pistol but it appears I have to complete a course
b-4 I can do this.

I live in Clinton. I'm looking for a class within a 20 mile area of Clinton if possible.

Can anyone help me out here?
