Concealed Carry Class
near Baton Rouge, LA
Looking for a concealed carry class near Baton Rouge? P&D Concealed Carry and Gun Shop is in Walker, about 25 minutes east of Baton Rouge on I-12, depending on traffic. Many of our students come from Baton Rouge for a small class taught by a 22-year Army veteran.
The class Baton Rouge students take
The Louisiana Concealed Carry Class is one day, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and costs $125. It covers the classroom topics the state requires and ends with the live-fire qualification, so you leave with the training certificate you need to apply for your permit with Louisiana State Police.
- Taught by David Groce, a 22-year U.S. Army veteran teaching since 2012
- USCCA-certified instruction that meets the state training requirement
- Small classes with personal attention on the firing line
- No experience needed, and rental handguns are available
- Live fire at a private range a few minutes from the classroom
The draw for Baton Rouge students is the small class size and the fact that the instructor owns the shop. You are not a number in a hotel conference room. You train with the same person who will answer the phone when you have a question later.
