I was only able to find this topic: 

However, I'm not sure what exactly the poster meant by the "gun safety class".

 

I've had some practice back home - mostly for fun, it was just a handful of times, and there was an instructor who explained everything. So I should check "Yes" for weapons training then?

 

(Never had a LTC, never owned a gun. Shot a couple of times at the gun range after moving here, and took a safety class for LTC but never got around to applying.)
