What type of firearms safety or training course is acceptable for a CCDW application in Kentucky?

  1. Online video course

  2. NRA firearms safety course

  3. Self-taught firearms safety exam

  4. Any firearms course taught by an unlicensed instructor

The correct answer is: NRA firearms safety course

The correct answer is B, an NRA firearms safety course. In Kentucky, to apply for a Concealed Carry Deadly Weapon (CCDW) permit, you need to complete a firearms safety or training course that is approved by the Kentucky Department of Criminal Justice Training (DOCJT). The National Rifle Association (NRA) firearms safety course is one of the approved courses that meets this requirement. Taking an NRA course ensures that the individual has received proper training and education on firearm safety, handling, and laws related to carrying a concealed weapon. It is important to choose a reputable and recognized course to ensure that you are meeting the state's requirements for obtaining a CCDW permit. Option A, an online video course, option C, a self-taught firearms safety exam, and option D, any firearms course taught by an unlicensed instructor, are not acceptable for a CCDW application in Kentucky as they may lack the necessary structure, guidance, and official approval required by the state.
