Orange County Sheriff’s Department & San Diego County Sheriff’s Department Training Provider

Application Tactical is approved by Orange County and San Diego County Sheriffs' Departments to provide CCW applicants with the mandated firearms and safety training required by California Penal Code Section 26165(a), OCSD Policy 218, and San Diego County Sheriff's Licensing Unit Policy.  We also provide tactical pistol training, advanced concealed carry weapon training, and certify training for Arizona, Florida, and Utah CCW Permits.  Obtaining non-resident Arizona, Florida, and Utah CCW permits expands your mobility and ability to carry concealed nationwide.

We separate ourselves from other providers with realistic training and scenarios, taught from both military and law enforcement perspectives.  There is significant value in our program, different from other programs, because of the comprehensive information and experience we guide our students with.  This information is derived from actual shootings and combat survival techniques.
