A.F.I. Offers several different CCW classes, to include a Ladies Only CCW class, as well as private one of one firearms instruction.

If your are brand new to the CCW process, there are some helpful details as to how the process works at the bottom of this page. 

For those who are reapplying for their permits we offer the Butte/Glenn/ Corning 4-hour renewal classes.  We teach these classes every second and fourth Fridays of the Month at the Chico Rod and Gun Club in upper Bidwell Park.  Classes go from 5 pm till 9 pm.  This class consists of a 10-round qualification per pistol (Up to 4 pistols) followed by a class presentation.    We give you all the laws you need to know plus the insight of an active law enforcement officer and how to deal with law enforcement interactions.  

This class is $80.  Classes are every 2nd and 4th Fridays at the Chico Rod and Gun Club.

For those who are first time CCW applicants you will be required by new state law to take an 8-hour CCW class.  AFI has an agreement with the Chico Rod and Gun Club to get your 8 hours of training.  Simply take one of AFI's 4-hour CCW classes and then take one of the Clubs 4-hour CCW classes in order to get your required 8.  If this class is for you just click the link above to sign up.

First time CCW applicants will need to start the process by first contacting the Sheriff's office where they reside.  People who live in the town of Corning will need to contact the Corning Police Dept.

You will need to fill out an application, get fingerprinted and go through a background check.  While you are going through this process it would also be a good time to purchase a pistol if you do not own one already.  You can have up to four pistols on your permit.

All pistols must be registered to you.  The only exception to this is husbands and wives who reside in the same household.

                                LADIES ONLY 8 HOUR INITIAL CCW CLASS.

A.F.I. is putting on ladies only CCW classes.   This is a ladies only 8-hour initial CCW class. This class is for any females who live in Butte, Glenn and Tehama Counties or the town of Corning residences.  This is the 8-hour initial course that is required by state law in order to get your permit.  We have put the class out far enough so you should be able to start your paperwork and background, with the sheriff's office or police dept, now and hopefully have it done by the time this case is scheduled.  The first 4 hours will be in the classroom learning state and federal law.  We will also be teaching criminal and civil lawns in relation to being a CCW holder.  The last 4 hours will be on the range getting hands on training with your firearms.  You can have up to 4 pistols on your permit and if you do decide to bring more than 1, you will need 100 rounds for one particular pistol, and at least 10 rounds for the other(s).  If you already have a permit and want to use this class as a renewal class and also get an extra 4 hours of hands-on training you could to that as well.  This class is limited to 12 students/shooters.

If you have a group of friends who would all like to take this class, please give us a call so we can set up a private group class.
