Utah Non-Resident CCW Scams

Recommended Posts

Hello my fellow forum members. It has come to my attention that there is a school in NJ that is advertising Utah non resident CCW classes and they are telling the students they can use the NRA Cert they give them as training proof. This is incorrect. In order to obtain the UT CCW you must take a course from a certified UT instructor who has gone to UT to become an Instructor. That is who teaches the course at my school, a certified UT Instructor. Please make sure you get all of the facts before you pay.

 

Happy New Year.

Indeed Anthony is correct. You must take the 4 hour UT class to apply for the UT permit. The curriculum is set in stone by the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification. I am a certified instructor, and have taught courses in NY and NJ on numerous occassions. Check out our website at www.nafionline.com

I agree with Anthony. However, Florida will accept the Utah course certification as proof of firearms safety for a FL CCW... but as pointed out above the UT course must be taught by a UT certified instructor.

 

Also just a note fingerprints for Florida must be done by a LEO and signed by them... I had mine done and bounced b/c a non-LEO did them. Didnt matter a few days after I got the deficiency notice I was in FL and got printed there in the livescan system (preplanned vacation).

^^^ Anthony is indeed correct and I too would be cautious regarding an "instructor" that misses such a key point.

 

A comment on FL - I was told that the UT training would be acceptable, but in fact they rejected my application on that basis and I had to send my NRA "Personal Protection in the Home" certificate (taught by Anthony). So, there may be some discretion/ignorance at the level of the FL people. Just saying.

 

Happy shooting!

Best

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
