Maryland Wear & Carry (Extension Training)

Completes Maryland’s Wear & Carry permit training requirement when paired with our Delaware course.

$150 | 8 Hours (Extension)

This course is the Maryland Wear & Carry extension to our Delaware Concealed Carry course. Maryland requires 16 hours of training for original Wear & Carry permit applications. The Delaware course satisfies the first 8 hours, and this extension completes the remaining Maryland-specific instruction and qualification.

This course is intended for students who have already completed our Delaware course and wish to apply for a Maryland Wear & Carry Permit.

Course Structure

This is a single-day extension course consisting of classroom instruction and live-fire qualification. Courses are held at Alex Acres Rifle & Pistol Range in Galena, MD.

Training Includes:

  • Maryland firearm law and use-of-force considerations

  • Maryland Wear & Carry application process

  • Scenario-based discussion and instruction

  • Live-fire qualification in accordance with Maryland standards

Maryland Wear & Carry Renewal Training

This same training day also satisfies the 8-hour renewal requirement for Maryland Wear & Carry permit holders. Renewal applicants attend the same class session and complete the required refresher instruction and live-fire qualification.

Active duty military and honorably discharged veterans are exempt from Maryland’s training requirement. See our FAQ for details before registering.
