NYS 18 Hour CCW Pistol Permit Course JUNE 27 & 28, 2026
THE EDC FACILITY ADVANTAGE
Instead of sitting in a rented space and traveling to a weather-dependent outdoor range, you will learn in our dedicated smart classroom located at 579 Stone Road in Greece NY 14616 using replica and inert training firearms for unparalleled safety and hands-on experience.
For your mandatory live-fire qualification, we utilize our on-site Simulated Ammunition Range. This NYS-qualified marking ammunition is completely non-lethal, lead-free, and has a significantly reduced sound signature.
Safety is our absolute priority. No live ammunition is permitted past our fitness areas. For members who already carry, secure on-site lockers are provided before entering the classroom, sim range, or CQB maze.

Day 1: The Foundation, Saturday 8am-5pm. We cover parts of the flagship USCCA Concealed Carry and Home Defense Fundamentals (CCHDF) curriculum. Expect hands-on learning, interactive digital quizzes, and prizes to keep the energy high!
