NEW REQUIREMENT: Be sure to bring a face cover (ie: surgical or other mask) in order to attend class.
Our 3 hour Illinois Renewal Concealed Carry Class satisfies the state training requirement to apply to renew your IL CCL.
This class covers |
- a review of the legal use of force
- updates to the current IL statutes
- a refresher on prohibited areas
- a review of applicable State and federal laws relating to carrying a firearm
- instruction on the appropriate and lawful interaction with law enforcement while transporting or carrying a concealed firearm.
Cost | $75
Your range fee and required B-27 target is included in the cost.
A 30 round qualification shoot will take place during this Concealed Carry Renewal Course.
You will shoot 10 rounds from a distance of 5 yards; 10 rounds from a distance of 7 yards; and 10 rounds from a distance of 10 yards at a B-27 silhouette target. To pass you must shoot with at least 70% accuracy, meaning at least 21 of 30 rounds must fall within the 16" x 22" outer (7) ring of the standard B-27 target pictured above. If you fail you must complete a basic pistol training level 2 or private instruction class before you will be allowed to re-shoot the qualification.
Class Requirements |
- You must bring a face cover (ie: surgical or other mask)
- You must show up on time. The state requires 3 complete hours of training.
- Valid FOID and IL Concealed Carry License (Currently expired FOID & CCL licenses are considered valid as long as you have applied for renewal)
- Pen and paper.
- Eye and ear protection (which you can rent for $4)
- 30 rounds of ammunition (which you can purchase in-store)
- A firearm unloaded and in a case.
Although it is not required by the State of IL, Maxon Concealed Carry instructors will ask that you shoot your qualification with the firearm you intend to carry in .380ACP/.38SPL or higher caliber. We have plenty of rental guns available if you do not own something suitable.
You can take this class anytime. But you can't apply for renewal until 90 days before your license expires.
At the end of class, after you pass your qualification shoot, you will be given a certificate of training that does not expire. This certificate will need to be uploaded into your renewal application on the Illinois State Police ISPFSB website.
