All instructors are NRA and USCCA certified. They have years of firearms experience and extensive knowledge of Maryland and D.C firearm laws, including concealed carry regulations.
"Self-defense is a human right. We're here to provide American citizens with the knowledge and training to legally and effectively protect themselves."
Tier 1 Academy partners with Afterpay, so you can finance courses at checkout and pay over time. Bring a friend discount: $50 off per person when two or more people sign up together for initial CCW courses.
You don't need the HQL before getting your Maryland CCW. Maryland State Police issue the HQL for free when you receive your CCW. Getting the HQL first, then the CCW, costs more than going straight to CCW.
You must be at least 21 years old for CCW courses (18 for security training). Disqualifying factors include felony conviction, controlled substance crimes, active addiction, or documented propensity for violence. If you have prior charges or criminal history, contact Tier 1 Academy—they partner with a lawyer who handles expungements in the DMV area.
