Do You Have a CCW Permit?

Initially, I took a "multi-state CCW" course offered in (of all places), NJ! For the course fee, they covered everything (training, fingerprints, completion of forms, Notary services, photographs, etc.)... everything except the application fees themselves, for each state you wished. They offer four states in total (UT, AZ, FL, VA). I took all but VA, as the "non-res" fee was a little pricey, and I was covered in VA by the other states. For FL, the course did offer a live fire qualification portion, but it was BYOG/A. They supplied the range and targets. The facility was the Quinton Sportsmens Club in Salem NJ, but i understand, now that the course is "mobile" and will travel to wherever in the NJ/Del/PA area anyone would like to host it.

I applied for the three states (AZ, FL, UT, all non-res) in the 03/15/2014 time frame, and received all back roughly 2 months later. As of today, my FL CWFL is now a "resident" CWFL. My EDC is a "Shield 9mm" with 8 rnd mags, but I'm thinking about changing to a SIG Sauer P320 Sub compact for EDC and making the Shield the BUG. I'll have to see how it feels to fire, first, but I do like the extra mag capacity (+4 as compared to the Shield). Hopefully, it will result in better groupings (the Shield is still scattering just a tad), but I have to check that first. I'm getting very good groupings with my full sized SIG Sauer P226, but it's too big to EDC concealed.

We'll see.
