Etowah County Sheriffs Office offering free firearms safety course



Firearms instructors of the Etowah County sheriff’s office will be offering a free Citizens’ Firearm Safety Course Aug. 19 on the campus of Gadsden State Community College.
The course is the latest in a series to teach gun owners the responsibilities of owning and using a handgun, Alabama’s self-defense and pistol permit laws as well as basic safety.
The classroom portion of the course is from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in Room 210 at GSCC’s Joe Ford Center. Participants are asked not to bring their guns to the class. A day at the firing range will be scheduled for those who successfully complete the classroom portion of the course for hands-on firing of their weapons.
Registration is required for the course. To register, email nbarton@etowahcounty.org. Class size is limited to 80 people. Additional classes will be scheduled throughout the year.
