The code of Virginia does not require individuals to pass a shooting qualification or written exam however I feel it's essential to demonstrate basic competency. All students attending are expected to fire their weapon and pass with a score of 80% or better. Students must bring a minimum of 50 rounds of ammunition as well as hearing and eye protection to attend.
09/01/2020: Due to the current ammunition shortage the shooting qualification may be waived in lieu of alternative testing if the student is unable to obtain the required 50 rounds. (maximum class size 10 students no minimum) |
