Frequently Asked Questions


What does CPL mean and is the CPL class the same as a CCW class?

CPL is the acronym for Concealed Pistol License.  The terms CCW (Concealed Carry Weapons permits) and CPL are often used interchangeably and to describe the license issued to carry a concealed handgun.  Michigan does not issue CCWs.  Michigan residents may obtain a Concealed Pistol License which allows them to carry one or more pistols concealed on their person.


I do not own a gun, can I still take your course?

Yes, loaner guns can be made available for our basic courses including Personal Protection in the Home (Michigan CPL class)


I do not have handgun experience, can I take the CPL course?

Previous handgun experience is a pre-requisite to take the CPL course.  Our First steps Pistol Course is designed to provide the necessary basic knowledge and skills required to successfully complete the handgun exercises in the CPL class.
