Beyond New York requirements, they offer:
"We Are Safety FANATICS!" – This isn't marketing copy. It's their actual operating principle.
Their curriculum covers real ammunition knowledge—not internet nonsense. Here's what gets covered:
| Caliber | Common Use | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 9x19mm (9mm Luger) | Handguns | Most common pistol round in US |
| .45 ACP | Semiautomatic pistols | Larger projectile, more recoil |
| .38 Special | Revolvers | Standard police/civilian defense round |
| .357 Magnum | Revolvers | Longer case, more powder than .38 Special |
| .22 LR | Rifles, target practice | Affordable, low recoil |
| 5.56x45mm | Rifles | Military/civilian AR platform |
| .308 Winchester | Rifle hunting | Larger caliber for game |
Ball ammunition sounds harmless but is dangerous for defense because it passes through targets and strikes unintended objects. Hollow points sound sinister but are actually far safer for home defense.
Their instructors cover Title 18, Chapter 44 of US Federal Code—the laws that actually matter:
Title 18, Section 922(g) prohibits firearm possession by:
Violating these prohibitions carries up to 10 years federal imprisonment.
You CAN carry a concealed firearm in a school zone IF your state/county has licensed you to carry—which is exactly why the 18-hour permit class exists.
Their core service is meeting New York's mandate: you need training before you get a permit. The 18-hour NRA course is the approved way to satisfy this requirement for:
They're transparent about what they're NOT: attorneys. Firearms laws change. Court interpretations shift. You're ultimately responsible for verifying that information is current in your jurisdiction.
"It would be a challenge for any average citizen to interpret these five hurdles [Federal Law, State Law, County Law, City Law, and issuing authority] and attempt to comply without expert legal counsel."
That's why they exist—to navigate the training requirement correctly so you can apply for your permit with confidence.
