Where did you take that class? That's odd.
We always allow handguns in class, and I check them all. We just don't allow live ammo for safety reasons.
The class I was referring to with the locked Sig was yours Jim.:lol: That guy definitely needed a little coaching.
All guns were welcome, all were checked including mine for ammo, hands on was with toy guns for some demonstrations where sweeping the class was necessary...and the real thing for others. Each kind of gun in the class was covered on an individual basis as well as other common types.
Now as far as having to get training, I agree it shouldn't be required but I also don't think a permit should be required. A lot of us grew up shooting. I've owned a gun since I was 6. Most of us that did grow up with them though are constantly getting new training.
Hunters don't have to have training but I've been reviewing the DGIF accident reports for the last few years for a project I'm working on.
Those simple ass dog hunters shoot each other all the time. Kinda like a twit of the year contest. Tickles the hell out of me. Chippers are welcome to add to the amusement if they want.
