Course Overview

This live fire class is required by the state of Connecticut for a resident or nonresident concealed carry permit. The class includes fingerprints, notarized signature, and photo needed to apply for your CT permit.

CT State Police have changed the process to apply for an Out of State LTC. YOU MUST FIRST CONTACT THEM TO ORDER THE APPLICATION PACKET. The packet will contain a unique code that the applicant must use to pay for fingerprint submission processing. You may request the Out of State packet by calling 860-685-8494. Please bring your packet to the class! You must have a current MA LTC, or you MUST TAKE our Basic Firearms Safety Course prior to taking the “Connecticut License to Carry Class”. This course is 4-hours long and includes classroom and range time learning to shoot revolvers and semi-automatic pistols. The class will include information about the Connecticut licensing process as well as an introduction to Connecticut firearms law.

Course FAQs

What is your “Certification For Life™” program all about?

Mass State Police training certificates do not have an expiration date.  However, some cities and towns require the certificates to be less than one year old when the student applies for their license.  A few cities and towns will only accept certificates less than six months old.  Further, other towns (thankfully a small number) will make you retake the class every time you renew your license.

All this is why our “Certification for Life™” program is so valuable.  If you take a MFS Mass Basic Firearms Safety Class, and your city or town requires you to retake the class, we will let you take it again for free.    To add even more value to our classes, we also allow you to take a free refresher class every 3 years.   Programs like this are why so many police departments recommend MFS to their local residents.

I have extensive experience with firearms. Do I have to take the MA Basic Safety Course?

Yes…everyone has to take the class. While you may have previous experience with handling firearms the complexity of Mass firearms law necessitates that you take the class.

Should I wear special clothing for my course?

No.  Our indoor facilities are temperature-controlled and comfortable year-round.

I was very encouraged to see several other women in the class. My instructor gave me plenty of time. With his help I can now shoot better than my husband. Thanks MFS.

Phil from Metro West

Everyone I spoke to told me I would never get a license to carry in my town. With the help of MFS I got an unrestricted license in only 3 weeks. Thank you MFS!

James from Boston

I thought it would be hard to get a firearms license in Boston. MFS explained every step of the process and made it very easy to understand. My friends could not believe how quickly I got my license.
