Law Enforcement Qualifications
LEOSA Qualification Shoot - $15
Federal law allows qualified retired peace officers with at least 10 years of experience to carry a concealed firearm if they meet certain criteria including an annual qualification shoot. Completion of this shoot results in a certificate that can be turned into the county sheriff in Nevada for a LEOSA card. This shooting qualification is conducted in compliance with the standards of the Nevada Sheriffs' and Chiefs' Association and the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Act and requires 30 rounds of ammunition.
Other Law Enforcement Qualifications
I can also sign off on department specific courses of fire if your department authorizes a civilian instructor to do so and you provide me with a copy of the course of fire. I have a number of officers that come to me from different departments for off duty weapons qualifications.

A hat is recommended to deflect shell casings and to keep the sun out of your eyes, as well as lotion to protect your skin from the ultra-violet radiation. For cold weather, gloves are recommended.
