Taxwhat-- could you direct me to the information that the State of Michigan ONLY accepts classes from MCSGO or NRA for Non-LEO?
NRA website under rules or length of courseDo you happen to have the NRA Training Manual rules as to what prerequisites are required for the NRA Basic Personal Protection In The Home Course? I would really like to get this issue resolved as it is potentially very serious....
On the NRA website I found some information BUT do not believe that I can consider it authoritative in regards to the issue.
From the NRA website:
Name : NRA Basic Personal Protection In The Home Course
Short Description : Teaches the basic knowledge, skills, and attitude essential to the safe and efficient use of a handgun for protection of self and family, and to provide information on the law-abiding individual’s right to self-defense.
More Details: This is an eight-hour course.
Range time 3 hours .Students should expect to shoot approximately 100 rounds of ammunition. Students will learn basic defensive shooting skills, strategies for home safety and responding to a violent confrontation, firearms and the law, how to choose a handgun for self-defense, and continued opportunities for skill development. Students will receive the NRA Guide to the Basics of Personal Protection In The Home handbook, NRA Gun Safety Rules brochure, the Winchester/NRA Marksmanship Qualification booklet, and course completion certificate.(Lesson Plan 2000, revised 10/06)
The NRA Basic Personal Protection In The Home Course
