So I completed the REQUIRED class needed to apply for a CPL. This class is clearly a revenue machine for the state! There really isn't anything taught to you that you wouldn't of considered if you were going to carry a pistol. Veyr basic info on things like where you can and can't carry. What will happen if you do have to use your weapon, and basic gun safety. (Always point your weapon in a safe direction) really?? I didn't know that...
The REQUIRED shooting portion of the class was very basic. No regards to if you could hit the target or not. Just put your 100 rounds through the gun.
I did ask a couple questions regarding open carry. This class was taught by LE. After agreeing that it's completely legal in the state. Don't do it. You'll get arrested. After I said why if it's completely legal? They would respond with disturbing the peace. Even after stating that they are not to approach a MWAG call unless the peson was acting very suspicious or agressive. I asked about carrying open in the gun free zones if you have a CPL. Again it's legal but don't do it. Leave your weapon in the car. So they agree that the law says it legal, but it's not in your best interest, and you'll get arrested. I didn't get into a debate because other people paid there money to take the course not talk about OC.
So the state and the instructors got there money!! $125 plus the $105 for the state! Hope it helps keep the state afloat:cuss:
