Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires that a person who applies to the Department of Justice for a license to carry a concealed weapon undergo at least eight hours of training, one hour of which involves shooting range experience. Current law requires training for licensure but does not specify duration and also prohibits DOJ from requiring that live ammunition be fired as part of the training requirement.
