FAQ — Brown County Permit to Carry

Is this accepted by Brown County Sheriff?

Yes. You complete the course, take the certificate to the Sheriff’s Office with your application, photo ID, and fee. They handle the permit. Training is valid statewide.

Do you include live-fire?

Yes. Every class includes range time and coaching. It’s non-negotiable. Competence matters.

I’m renewing. Do I need the full class?

Yes — statute requires training within 12 months of renewal. My renewals are efficient and focused on what’s changed.

New to pistols. Can I still take it?

Absolutely. I teach beginners all the time. If you need a pre-class primer, say so — we’ll get you squared away.

Do you travel inside Brown County?

Yes. I run on-site classes for groups (churches, businesses, friends). Reach out to set a date.
