Caddo Sheriff’s Office Offering Concealed Handgun Permit Training

Let's face it.  There are times when you'd simply feel a little more secure if you were allowed to carry a handgun for protection.  In the great state of Louisiana, there's a provision for just those occasions and the Caddo Sheriff's Office is helping you do something about it.  The Caddo Sheriff's Office is offering state-required training for anyone 21 and older who wants to obtain a concealed handgun permit, said Sheriff Steve Prator.

Citizens can complete most of the state requirements in one stop by attending a class from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Sheriff's Regional Training Academy on Saturday, September 21.

The course includes classroom instruction, firing range instruction, and a qualifications course.  The cost to attend is $100.

Pre-registration is required by calling Deputy Andrea Samuel at 681-0735.
