SCP - Firearm Training

This is how the CHCL licensing process works... Steps one and two do not necessarily need to be completed in order, but doing so will ensure the quickest results...

1. Apply for your license online ( https://www.ark.org/asplicense/chcl_application/chcl.aspx ), and pay the state licensing fee (currently $144.94 for ages 64 and younger, $93.44 for ages 65 and older)... Upon submission, you will be given an order confirmation code... Keep that number, because I will need it...

2. Take a CHCL course from a registered ASP instructor (that's what my class is)... The class will be 5 hours of instructional time (including a lunch break, which I will provide), followed by live fire on the range... If you have a handgun, bring it along with at least 50 rounds of ammunition... If not, you are welcome to use one of my handguns... I only ask that you bring ammunition for the gun you intend to use (I will answer any questions you have about this, and I realize that this may be totally new to you)... Also, bring a USB flash drive, so that I can upload all relevant files and training materials onto it for you to keep for reference...

3. After the course, you will receive a training certificate... You will take this training certificate to the State Police headquarters on Geyer Springs, and have your fingerprints taken...

4. You wait... Your training certificate and fingerprints will be added to your application, and will be sent a few different places... Background check, county sheriff, then back to ASP for processing... You will receive your license in the mail... This whole process typically can take close to 120 days... However, my previous class began receiving their licenses after only a month and a half...
