Massachusetts Home Firearms Safety Course LTC-007

The main course I teach is the National Rifle Association Home Firearms Safety Course (LTC-007). It is a very popular course that meets the minimum firearms safety training requirement for obtaining a Massachusetts firearms license. This training class exceeds the standards established to obtain a License to Carry (LTC) or Firearms Identification (FID) card in accordance with Massachusetts General Law Chapter . 140, § 131P and 515 CMR 3.00.

This is a four hour instructor led course that covers the safe handling and operation of many types of modern firearms. Students are given the opportunity to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary for the safe handling, operation, storage of firearms and ammunition in the home and transportation of firearms outside the home.

This class does not contain a live fire requirement. However, you will handle non firing ammunition and load and unloaded revolvers and semi-auto pistols. No handling or loading of live ammunition will be permitted in the class.

Course Outline:

  • Rules for Safe Gun Handling
  • Identifying and Loading/Unloading Different Firearms
  • Practical Exercises in Safe Gun Handling

At the successful completion of the class you'll be presented with a NRA Firearms Safety completion certificate, and the MA State Police Basic Firearm Safety Certificate that you'll submit with your LTC application.
