What does successful SA qualification authorize an individual to carry?

Successful SA (Security Authority) qualification allows an individual to carry either semi-automatic or non semi-automatic handguns. This flexibility is important because it recognizes that both types of firearms can be effective for self-defense or in a security context, depending on the situation and the individual's preference or comfort level with each type.

Being authorized to carry both styles of handguns enables security professionals to choose the firearm that best fits their needs, training, and the specific demands of the security situations they might face. This broad authorization aligns with the idea that competent training should encompass a range of firearm types, ensuring that individuals are well-prepared for whatever circumstances may arise in their duties.

The other choices are limited in scope, each restricting the individual to only one specific type of firearm, which does not provide the same level of preparedness for various scenarios that security personnel may encounter. Having the ability to carry either type of handgun enhances the effectiveness and versatility of a security professional in the field.
