Concealed Handgun Permits  The process is easier than you think.

The laws related to concealed handgun permit training requirements changed as of July 1, 2025.  On this date, new applications must be accompanied by evidence of competence with a firearm through an original training certificate from a certified instructor dated within one year of application. Additional information can be found at C.R.S. 18-12-203(1)(h).

Renewal applicants will be required to submit proof that they’ve completed a handgun refresher class taught by a certified instructor within 6 months prior to submission.

Out-of-state training certificates will NOT be accepted.
