Carrying a firearm as a security officer is a serious responsibility that requires thorough training, a deep understanding of the law, and an unwavering commitment to safety and professionalism. Security guards entrusted with firearms must be mentally prepared, legally authorized, and highly trained to handle situations where the use of a firearm may be necessary.
This course is designed to help provide security professionals with an overview of the fundamental skills, legal understanding, and ethical considerations necessary to carry and use firearms safely and responsibly.
Security officers must recognize that firearms are a last resort and that their role is not law enforcement but to provide protection and deterrence while following all applicable laws and company policies.
🔴 ⚠Important: Security guards must receive firearms training from a licensed instructor and comply with company policies and all legal requirements before carrying a firearm on duty. Failing to do so can result in legal consequences, job termination, and criminal liability.
