DC CONCEALED PISTOL LICENSE | RENEWAL COURSE

Description

The District of Columbia requires Concealed Pistol License (CPL) holders to renew their permits every two years. Unless exempt, renewal applicants must complete four hours of approved firearms safety training covering DC-specific firearm laws, transportation regulations, and the lawful use of force in self-defense. Applicants must also complete a live-fire range qualification within 12 months before submitting their renewal application.

Our Hybrid DC Concealed Carry Permit Renewal Course is specifically designed for experienced permit holders who already possess a solid foundation in firearm safety, handling, and pistol proficiency.

This streamlined course combines the flexibility of instructor-led virtual classroom instruction with the required in-person live-fire qualification, providing a convenient and comprehensive training experience.

Whether you're renewing for the first time or maintaining your credentials, our goal is to ensure you remain knowledgeable, proficient, and prepared to meet the District's renewal training requirements with confidence.
