4. Firearms Safety Course: First time applicants must submit a copy of a recent certificate showing completion of a basic firearm safety course given in their home state or in Massachusetts. This course must have been taken with an instructor who is certified by the Colonel of the Massachusetts State Police (please ask your instructor prior to taking the course if he is certified in Massachusetts).
I sent them an email on how to be recognized as a certified instructor. Any ideas on how to do this?
Ok- Talked to a bunch of people today.
1st, you need a Massachusetts non-resident before you are certified as an instructor. The catch is it is 100 bucks a year, and you have to appear in Mass.
2nd- you need to take a safety course with a Mass. licensed instructor.
A out of state instructor must be licensed by the Mass police.
3rd- (if you are granted a non-resident carry permit )then you apply to the state police to be certified, and you need to supply copies of all of your credentials.
Seems like way too much work to do for the few students I have wanting a Mass permit.
Wait a minute..I'm lost here. Are we talking about first time applicants seaching for "approved safety courses" to obtain a MA. permit, or first time applicants looking to be recognized as NRA MA. instructors?
I've asked a couple months ago and haven't gotten any response. Now seems like a good time to ask again...
Does anyone know of any MA certified instructors located in eastern or central PA?
I'm guessing then that it is not posted anywhere online, otherwise she would have just pointed you in that direction, right?If you contact the Firearms Records Bureau at 617-660-4780 or the Mass State Police at 508-820-2300, they can tell you. The lady at the Mass State Police went through the entire list with me for NY instructors.
