DATES TO BE SPECIFIED

Basic First Aid Training

As of July 1, 2018, an amendment to Section 35 of the Firearms Act requires that applicants for a firearm acquisition permit or firearm license must present a document proving the completion of at least 16 hours of first aid training. If owning a gun and shooting is your free choice, first aid is a necessity for life to ensure the safety and security of yourself and your loved ones. The course costs €75.

To meet the requirements of the Weapons Act and to ensure you have the skills and confidence you need for life, we run a 16-hour basic first aid course.

Upon completion of the training, we will issue a certificate as a prerequisite for applying for an acquisition permit or firearms licence. The training, and the certificate issued on completion, is also suitable for applicants for a driving licence and for workplace first-aiders.
