Learn From Experienced Military Veterans

Our staff is made up of military veterans from the Marine Corps and the Navy. They offer a host of experience covering firearms and gun safety and can help you learn how to properly care for and use a weapon. 

We follow and meet all the requirements set by the State of Illinois.There have been many instances in the past of instructors (CCL Classes) who have shortened or not met all the requirements mandated by the State. Those who have attended these classes by instructors who have not complied with the outlined requirements have had their students and their own licenses revoked.

The Illinois Concealed Carry License class is 16 hours, a Saturday and Sunday (8 hrs. each day). We will be in the classroom at Azimuth Scuba Saturday, Sunday morning we will be at the range and back at Azimuth Scuba in the afternoon to complete the course. The cost of the training is $215

The Illinois Concealed Carry Renewal Course is 5 hours conducted on Sunday. We will begin the class at the outdoor range in the morning to complete the live fire portion of the class then meet back at Azimuth Scuba to complete the course. Must have a valid IL CCL at the time of the class. The cost of the training is $100

If you do not have your own weapon to conduct the required live fire evaluation we have weapons available for rent. Please let us know prior to class so we have the weapon and ammunition ready for the live fire.
