COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS?

Do I need to qualify with every weapon I carry?

No. The qualification covers any firearm of a similar action. For example: If you qualified with a Smith and Wesson M&P 9, you could carry a SW M&P shield or other similar firearm, but you would not be able to carry a Double Action revolver because it is an entirely different action type. If you intend to carry different firearm types, you must qualify with each.

No, The qualification covers any firearm of the same type. Qualifying with a Glock chambered in 9mm will cover you to carry a Glock chambered in 45acp.
