The Firearms Training Manual and Student Study Guide, which details the requirements for obtaining and maintaining a Class "G" firearm license in Florida, specifically for law enforcement officers and private investigators. The manual establishes the guidelines for the 28-Hour Initial Qualification Course and the 4-Hour Annual Requalification courses for pistol, shotgun, and rifle/carbine, including course descriptions and schedules. A significant portion focuses on the legal framework governing the carrying and use of force, including deadly force, by licensed private citizens, emphasizing that their authority is no greater than that of any other civilian. In addition, the text provides extensive and detailed instructions on the safe handling of firearms, the fundamentals of shooting, and procedures for loading, unloading, and cleaning revolvers, semi-automatic pistols, shotguns, and rifles.
