Avoid The Supply-Chain Shortages

No supply-lines shortages here! Gifts certificates can be used immediately or weeks from now. All class are conducted by a local non-profit organization.

In-Gauge of Polk County has gift certificates available for ALL concealed carry, firearms and self-defense training classes.

These gift certificates are the perfect gift for the person in your life who has recently purchased or received a new firearm and has yet to receive formal training. Not just took a “concealed carry class”, but has yet to be trained in the use, handling and shooting a gun.
ALL our firearms training classes qualify the student for applying for a Florida concealed carry license.
The class title does NOT have to state “concealed carry class”.

Gift certificates can be purchased for individual classes or training packages. Purchases can be conveniently made through Eventbrite at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/gift-certificates-available-concealed-carry-firearm-training-classes-tickets-210601263047 or on our website using PayPal.

In-Gauge of Polk County 2021 gift certificates available.

In-Gauge of Polk County has been conducting incomparable concealed carry classes, in Polk County, for over 6 years. During such time, we have trained over 6,000 law abiding citizens how to defend their lives and the lives of their loved ones. We receive numerous word-of-mouth referrals, with students traveling from as far north as Atlanta, Georgia and as far south as Fort Lauderdale and Naples to attend our classes.

In-Gauge of Polk County is represented at more retail sporting goods stores than any other forearms training group in central Florida.

However, we have not done a good job in getting the word out that we conduct more than basic ‘concealed carry’ classes.

Although our basic, 5-hour concealed carry training class (CCW 101), is head and shoulders above and beyond any other ‘concealed carry’ class conducted locally and far exceeds the minimum standard for applying for a Florida concealed carry license, we consider it a basic, orientation, self-defense, training class.

We encourage you to contact your local law enforcement agency and ask if they provided firearm training beyond a basic State qualification concealed carry class.

Ask that same agency or any gun shop concealed carry class provider if they train you in:

  • drawing from a holster or a pocketbook,
  • the various methods of carrying a concealed firearm,
  • the clearing of firearm malfunctions and jams,
  • the utilization of cover and concealment or
  • the tactical use of a shotgun for home defense.

In-Gauge of Polk County, an official NRA firearms training provider does!

Handgun Training Class – Wednesday, February 24th

Having a concealed carry license is not the end of your training. It is the beginning.

Ours is more than a ‘concealed carry’ class. We train you to defend your life and the lives of your loved ones.

Successful completion of this class qualifies you to apply for a Florida concealed carry license.

It cannot be understood why someone would take a a concealed carry class, gun training class or a self-defense class conducted at a place that sells used bicycles and chainsaws or in a rented hotel room.

What value do you place on your life and the lives of your loved ones? The value of a used lawn mower?

If you want more from your ‘concealed carry’ training than just a piece of paper that allows you to apply for a concealed carry license, than take only official NRA firearms training classes. Not just a class taught by someone who claims to be an instructor.

If you are looking for unequaled firearms training, for either personal development or to qualify for a Florida concealed carry weapons license, visit our website at: www.ingaugeofpolkcounty.com
