NEVADA LAW:
Nevada is a "Shall Issue" state meaning that if a person with a clean criminal history successfully completes the approved classroom training and appropriate firearms qualification, the Sheriff will issue a permit. Nevada Concealed Firearm Permits are valid for a period of five years from the date of issue and are issued to residents of any state. Permit renewal requires a shorter refresher class, a shooting re-qualification and application to the Sheriff for the renewal. Completed application and proof of class & qualification must be presented to the Sheriff in person.
SHOOTING QUALIFICATIONS:
You may qualify with one revolver, which allows carry of any revolver. You must however qualify with each specific semi-automatic firearm you wish to carry. Nevada has no limit on the number of guns listed on your permit. If you have pre-qualified with your firearm(s), you need not bring your firearms to the class.
COURSE OF FIRE:
The qualification course consists of 36 rounds fired on a B-27 full sized target.
At 3 yards:
6 rounds, no time limit.
At 5 yards:
12 rounds, no time limit.
At 7 yards:
12 rounds, no time limit.
70% (252 points of 360) is the passing score.
For firearms holding only 5 rounds, an equivalent 30 round course will be used.
70% (210 points of 300) is the passing score.
