Sign up now for firearms safety
If you or someone you know needs your firearms safety certification, now is the time to sign up! Many classes are available throughout the state and have openings. However, they fill quickly and the longer you wait, the more likely you won’t be able to find one close to home. As a reminder, firearms safety certification is required of anyone born after Dec. 31, 1979 and who is over 12 years old to purchase a firearms hunting license.
