Driving Directions & Gate Access
Street classes meet at our limited-access training range in Pueblo. Classes run 7:45 AM–5:00 PM. Bring photo ID and the gate barcode texted the day before — you can’t enter without both.
Photo ID required at the gate
eCourse link emailed after booking
Before class day
MSF eCourse
After you enroll, you’ll get an email with the MSF eCourse link. Finish it before class and bring a printout or screenshot of your completion certificate (valid 30 days from completion).
Gate barcode
A security barcode / gate code is texted (and emailed) the afternoon before class. Check spam. No barcode + ID = no entry.
Arrive on time
If you’ll be more than 15 minutes late, call or text 719-201-3274 — late arrivals must reschedule per our Class Rescheduling Policy.
