Training

Ever thought of getting your firearms licence for club use?

At Torrens Valley Pistol Club we have a team of SA Police (SAPOL) accredited firearms instructors who operate monthly Firearms Safety and Awareness Courses to help prospective members on their journey to completing their firearms licence.
How does the process work?

In order to obtain a firearms licence for club use in South Australia the following steps are involved.

A form must be submitted to SAPOL firearms to seek approval to undertake training. This form will differ if you are adding club use to an existing licence or if you are applying for a licence for the first time.
When SAPOL return an approval to undertake training, you contact a club instructor who will book you in for the Safety Awareness Course.
On successful completion of the course and payment of the appropriate fees, your instructor will endorse your training, and the club will endorse your membership.
