LEOSA HR-218 Qualification Exam and Carry Card
Retired police and other qualifying law enforcement officers may carry their approved firearms nationally under a federal law known as the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004 and the LEOSA Improvement Act of 2010.
We have provided the LEOSA Qualification Program to retired federal agents, state troopers, municipal police officers, US Army and Air Force law enforcement personnel and other qualifying LEO's.
Click here for the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Improvement Act.
Qualification testing is conducted weekly at your convenience. The Connecticut P.O.S.T Standards Course of Fire for Pistols is used for Connecticut retired Leo’s and those retired who reside in this state.
Upon successful completion, we issue you your annual LEOSA wallet-sized carry card which accompanies your retired agency identification card.
You may use your own firearm(s) or rent ours. You supply the ammunition
(60 cartridges) for each type of firearm you wish to carry under this law (semi-automatic or revolver) and your firearm (s). The examination requires one successful qualification for each type of firearm. Fee includes headset, safety glasses, B60-CT targets. We also rent firearms for use in the qualification.
Fee:
Tuition: $85. for one firearm (revolver or semi-auto) or $95. for two firearm types. LEO qualification targets included. Firearm rental if needed $25.
Commercial indoor range fee additional.
HR 218 qualifications are also conducted on request. Law Enforcement documents required.

"Thank you for the class earlier this week. As a firearms instructor for 20 years with my department, it's always nice to see a true professional at work.
You are great at what you do! I also appreciate the course you designed that incorporated off-hand shooting, which is hardly ever taught and which is so useful.
I look to using you each year for my requalification."
- Chris P., Federal Probation Officer, Retired, March 2024
