(a) All firearms course material provided to the certificate holder in the “Firearms Training Manual” issued by the bureau shall be covered in each class session. Any course textbook or manual developed to be used by a firearm training facility as a course in the carrying and usage of firearms shall include the aspects of employee restraint and defensive missions of security guards in addition to following the format delineated in the bureau’s “Firearms Training Manual” and shall be examined and approved by the bureau prior to use. Once the bureau has approved the textbooks or manuals, all firearm training facilities shall be required to instruct in accordance with one of the textbooks or manuals. In no event shall the class instruction total less than eight hours for the initial firearms qualification.
The range instruction for the initial firearms qualification shall not exceed eight hours and shall cover the following subjects:
(1) Range safety and procedure.
(2) Demonstration and dry firing.
(3) Practice rounds.
(4) Qualification firing.
(b) If a person fails to successfully complete the range instruction, that person may, at the discretion of the firearms training facility, continue range instruction for an additional eight hours. However, the person shall, in order to receive a firearms qualification card, be required to successfully pass the range instruction within 30 days of the passage of the classroom instruction.
(c) Prior to range instruction a person shall participate in the classroom instruction and pass a bureau-developed examination of the subject matter with a minimum score of 85 percent. If a person fails to pass the written examination, he or she shall once more participate in the entire classroom instruction prior to retaking the examination. In no event shall a firearm instructor review the examination question by question with a person, allow a person to review the examination questions and answers, or in any manner assist a person with the examination.
