Welcome

Our HQL classes are  offered in-person and after work during the week. Don't waste a Saturday when you can do it during the week after work! 

Our HQL Class

    Maryland Handgun Qualification License (HQL)

    The HQL Process

    NEW  Information from the MSP  regarding thr HQL process!!


    The Maryland Department of State Police, Licensing Division (MDSPLD) is constantly reviewing policy and procedures in order to enhance the experience of our customers, allied agencies, firearms instructors and dealers, all while being as fiscally responsible to the citizens of Maryland as possible. With this in mind, beginning January 1, 2021, the MDSPLD will discontinue printing the current paper Handgun Qualification License (HQL).


    All HQL applicants approved on or after January 1, 2021, will receive, via email, a notification that the application has been reviewed and approved. Attached to the email will be a pdf of the Handgun Qualification License (HQL). A printed copy of the pdf, or an electronic copy of the license, must be presented to a dealer or any other person, prior to selling, renting, or transferring a handgun, in accordance with MD Public Safety §5- 117.1 and COMAR 29.03.01.06. The discontinuation of printing of the HQL license will expedite the final process of the HQL and ultimately decrease the time it takes for the applicant to receive their HQL.




    The  Maryland Handgun Qualification  License 


    Cost  of  the  class  $100.00 per student (paid in advance)


    Training Location Quick Fingerprints Office located at;

    This class is not only an HQL class, but is specifically designed as a handgun safety and operation class. It is intended to provide the student with invaluable information on how to safely operate and maintain a handgun.​

    The course consists of 4 hours of instruction including the required live fire component. Students participating in Saturday classes will complete the range portion immediately after the classroom portion is finished at the range facility provided during the class.
