This course is built for Minnesota permit holders who already understand the value of responsible carry and want a practical way to refresh their training. You do not need to spend a full day sitting in a classroom, chase down unclear next steps, or wonder whether the range requirement has been handled. The course keeps the training path clear from the first lesson through your certificate.

  • Complete the classroom work when it fits your week.
  • Finish the required review and live-fire qualification in Burnsville.
  • Train with a BCA-approved organization led by an experienced instructor.

Renewal training is a useful reset, not just a checkbox.

Use the course to revisit the decisions and habits that matter every time you handle or carry a pistol.

Revisit safe handling with context

Permit holders build routines over time, and routines can become automatic. Renewal training is an opportunity to slow down and revisit the fundamentals behind those habits: keeping a pistol in a safe condition, loading and unloading deliberately, storing it responsibly, and handling it safely around other people. The goal is not to put experienced students through a performance. It is to give them a clear, responsible refresher before they renew.

The classroom portion also revisits the legal and practical topics that should never be handled casually, including carry considerations, awareness, stress effects, and the serious responsibility that comes with using force. Students can work through those subjects at their own pace, return to a section when they need a second look, and arrive at the qualification with the course material fresh in mind.

Designed for responsible carry

Renewal is a sensible time to check that your day-to-day habits still match the standard you expect from yourself.

Come to the range step prepared

The local qualification session gives you a focused place to complete the live-fire requirement with an instructor present. If you have been shooting regularly, it is a straightforward finish to the course. If you have not spent much time at the range recently, it is also a chance to work through the session calmly, ask a practical question, and demonstrate safe handling without being rushed through a crowded all-day class.

Bring your usual handgun, magazines, eye protection, ear protection, and ammunition when you have them. If you do not have a suitable handgun available, ask about a loaner before your qualification. TTS can help you understand what to bring and what to expect, so the range appointment feels like the final step of a clear plan rather than another item to figure out on your own.

Questions are welcome

Call or email before scheduling when you need help with equipment, the course sequence, or the local qualification step.

Your renewal course, in three clear steps.

Complete the required training without turning a routine renewal into a last-minute scramble.

Complete the classroom online

Work through safe handgun handling, Minnesota carry law, lawful use of force, carry considerations, and qualification preparation at your pace. The online format gives you room to pause, review material, and finish around work or family commitments.

Start when you are ready. The classroom portion is designed to fit around a real schedule, not demand an all-day lecture.

Qualify in Burnsville

After the online work, complete the in-person review and live-fire qualification with Tactical Training Solutions at The Modern Sportsman. This is the hands-on step that confirms safe pistol handling and completes the course requirement for your certificate.

The Burnsville qualification is a practical option for renewal students from the South Metro, including Apple Valley, Eagan, Lakeville, Savage, Prior Lake, Shakopee, Northfield, and Faribault.

Keep your certificate ready

After successful completion, keep your certificate with the rest of your renewal paperwork. Before filing, review your county sheriff's current instructions for timing, appointments, identification, payment, and application materials. County procedures can differ, so checking before you leave saves an unnecessary trip.

A calmer way to get it done

Use your time for training, not guesswork.

A renewal course should not leave you sorting through vague promises or wondering what happens after checkout. TTS gives you one clear path: classroom work online, a local qualification session, and a certificate after successful completion.

The format works particularly well for experienced permit holders who do not need a one-size-fits-all classroom day. You can revisit the subjects that matter, arrive at the range step prepared, and ask direct questions when something is unclear. For many students, that is the difference between putting off renewal training and getting it handled with room to spare.

  • $99 includes the classroom, qualification, and range fee.
  • Loaner handguns may be available, with ammunition available at the student's cost.
  • Call or email before starting if you have a course or qualification question.
Good fit for

Current Minnesota permit holders who want flexible renewal training, a local live-fire qualification, and direct support from an instructor.

Plan ahead, then move through the course with confidence.

Put the practical pieces in order before the renewal process becomes urgent.

Start before you are rushed

Check the expiration date on your current permit and give yourself time to complete training before you plan to submit paperwork. Starting early leaves room for the online classroom, the local qualification, and a final review of your county's application process. It also means a busy week, a schedule conflict, or a missing document does not force a bad decision at the last minute.

Your renewal application belongs with your county sheriff. Confirm the office's current appointment and payment process before you go.

Arrive prepared for the range step

The qualification is not about theatrics. It is a chance to demonstrate safe handling, receive clear instruction, and complete the live-fire part of the training requirement. Bring your own handgun and ammunition when you have them, or ask TTS about the loaner option before your session. Students who come with questions are welcome, and students who are rusty get practical guidance rather than a rushed experience.

The online course prepares you for the range session, so you can focus on safe handling and the instructor's guidance when you arrive.
