Sheriff Brooks is pleased to offer firearms training classes to the public. These classes focus on general safety, Georgia law and proper shooting techniques. 

The classes consist of lecture, discussion and shooting instruction at our range facility. 

*Note that under current law, this class is not a requirement to apply for a Georgia Weapons Carry License.

  • Attendees must be 18 years of age or older. You must provide your own handgun and ammunition, (50-100 rounds recommended). You may share a firearm with another attendee. The Sheriff’s Office will provide safety equipment and targets. 

    We will schedule special sessions for groups of ten or more students.

    We do not provide certificates of attendance for those ordered by the court to attend safety training.

  • All classes begin at 9 a.m. and last until about 3 p.m.

    Registration is not required, please  arrive by 9 a.m. on the day of scheduled class. Meet in the parking lot of the range complex. The lecture portion will be in our on site training classroom, then we will move to the range for the practical application portion of the class. Shooters should plan to bring between 50 and 100 rounds of ammunition with them for the class. Additionally they should bring a lunch or snacks. We don't typically break for lunch.
