HIGH PLAINS CONCEALED CARRY (HPCC) IS PRESENTING A SERIES OF COURSES IN AUGUST 2026 IN CLOVIS, NM!
Feel free to contact us to discuss scheduling a custom series of courses at your location!
Successfully completing a basic course with a qualifying live fire score (see below for live fire requirements) is a prerequisite for attending any corresponding Instructor course! For example, completing Basic Pistol at Level 4 is a prerequisite for attending Pistol Instructor. Rifle instructor is similar. The shooter course is a prerequisite for all corresponding instructor courses. Also, being qualified as a Basic Pistol Instructor is a prerequisite for attending the more advanced instructor courses.
Call us 575-985-5555 or see below for more information.
If you are an NRA member, your course registration information must match your NRA membership information exactly, such as name, address, phone number and NRA membership number (do not use the three zeros at the beginning of your NRA membership number). Do not register for a course without using your NRA membership number unless you are OK paying the much higher credential registration fees to the NRA. Call us to join the NRA if you are not a member. Please call us at least one week before registering for any courses, as it takes a few days for the NRA to issue an actual membership number.
Unfortunately, the NRA website does not allow one registration to enroll a candidate in multiple courses. Candidates will need to register for each individual course.

HPCC has a minimum number of candidates required to put on any course. Also, NRA requires a minimum of four candidates to conduct any Instructor course or CRSO course.
The deposit for each series will be due once a series has the minimum number of registered candidates. Please do not make any payments, or deposits until we call you. However, registration for each series will close no later than 2 weeks prior to the series start date. If by the registration close date, the series does not have enough candidates, the series will be cancelled, or rescheduled to a later timeframe, and no deposits will be collected.
HPCC will always refund any fees collected on the rare occasion where we are forced to cancel a course. Refunds are not offered for no-show candidates. Reschedules can sometimes be offered if requested far enough in advance. However, we cannot guarantee they will be offered in the same location without being rescheduled to several months later. Substitute candidates may sometimes be allowed with at least 72 hours-notice and if the substitute meets all of the prerequisites.
NRA student materials are included with the fee for each course, or series of courses and will be provided to each candidate. The fee for each basic course includes one session lasting two hours (or more depending on the requirements of the course) of live fire range time and coaching; this is when the NRA live fire qualification for each course will be attempted. Any candidate requiring additional range time, or range days to shoot the NRA required qualification will be responsible for paying any additional range fees. This also applies to any Instructor courses that have a live fire component.
Other requirements are things like demonstrating impeccable firearm safety standards while handling firearms and simulators Each class also has a written evaluation.
Contact us at O 575-985-5555, or C 413-626-7778, or training@highplainsconcealedcarry.com to discuss preparing for each shooting qualification, and to answer any questions regarding allowed firearms.
Candidates are urged to bring lunch, drinks, snacks and a cooler each day. Lunchtime each day will be a working lunch to maximize class time productivity. Here is a question for you. If we have ten candidates in a class, and we give everyone from noon till 1:00 pm for lunch, how many of the ten will not make it back until sometime well after 1:00? Besides that, we would have to start an hour earlier to make up for the lunch hour. Each candidate will be responsible for cleaning up after themselves. Any candidate who wishes to bring a smoker, and who can properly smoke a moist brisket for all of us in the class to enjoy, oh who am I kidding, as long as they can provide this for the instructors, will receive extra points on all evaluations!
As more candidates register for and pay for an individual course, or courses, or series of courses, the total fee for that course, the courses, or the full series of courses may be reduced incrementally for each candidate. Before registering for any courses, click on the HOME link at the top and see the page about OUR TRAINING TEAM to know what movies you need to watch before attending any of our courses; that is if you want to get any of the HPCC instructor's movie quotes and references! YOU WILL BE GIVEN A QUIZ ON THESE MOVIES AT THE BEGINNING OF THE COURSE! This quiz will be pass/fail. Candidates who fail this quiz will be expelled from all courses without receiving any refunds! That's right, we said it!
Feel free to contact us at O 575-985-5555, C 413-626-7778, or training@highplainsconcealedcarry.com to discuss any of the above.
