The state requires only 20 practice rounds plus a 20-round qualification. PRS Tactical requires 25-50 rounds of practice depending on your performance. While .22 LR satisfies the legal requirement, shooters are encouraged to use at least .380 ACP (semiautomatic) or .38 Special (revolver) for more realistic training.
Try before you commit. Shoot a selection of popular concealed carry handguns to find what you're comfortable with.
- •3 guns: $25
- •6 guns: $40 (additional guns $5 cash per gun at range)
Includes one magazine or cylinder per gun (5-7 rounds). Calibers available: .380 ACP, .38 SP, .357 MAG, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP (subject to availability).
