Va and Az ccw online course

Recommended Posts

I was planning to do the Utah ccw class through gun for hire. But I'm hesitant because not sure if PA will do the same thing like they did with FL non-resident ccw and not accept them. I just got my FL ccw permit in January and February PA announced they will not accept those. Same thing with VA and AZ whose to say PA will not accept those too. Apparently they did this because PA residents that got denied the ccw permit were getting the FL one. So they wanted to stop that. At this point undecided

I took this online class a couple of weeks ago. You watch a 90 minute video and then take a 20 question test. After passing the test, I was able to print a training certificate for VA and one for AZ. The certificates have my name and are specific to the state they are to be used for. I e mailed AZ and was sent the application package via snail mail. I have yet to get finger printed to complete the process. It all seems legit.

According to the site's FAQs, both VA and AZ require fingerprints to be completed at your local PD.

 

Q. Do Virginia and Arizona require fingerprinting for their applications? If so, who does the fingerprinting?

A. Both Virginia and Arizona require fingerprints for the application. When you request an application packet from Virginia and Arizona they send you the fingerprint cards in the packet along with the application. All you have to do is go to a police station near you and they will do it for you. For example, in Utah (where we're based out of) the police station has certain days and hours they do fingerprinting and they charge $5 for the service.

 

Will local PDs in NJ do this? NJSP sub contracts FID fingerprints to a 3rd party and won't do those at the barracks.

I completed the class, took the test, printed out the certificate of completion, and emailed VA and AZ police departments.

Overall, the class was not too dry and informative, despite most of the content being obvious to a gun owner. He also includes information on how to contact the states to obtain the application packages.

With the course, the teacher also includes a free expert witness voucher, which he values at $3,400, if you ever get into legal trouble. Honestly, I think just the voucher alone is worth the price of the course.

Pretty decent and I would recommend the course.

I just completed the mini online course and test. Basic information - some minor blatant selling of some products from his website. Not badly done.

 

I emailed AZ and VA for the packet and I'm now waiting for that to arrive by snail mail.

any feed back on this course/application ?

 

The course was fine. Probably took an hour and a half to watch - not really sure of the time.

 

The applications from both states arrived by US mail after I requested them by email.

 

My local PD is the NJSP, they were kind enough to do the ink fingerprinting for me.

 

I'm ready to send in the applications this weekend. Glad I didn't. PA just dropped reciprocity with both VA and AZ non-resident permits.

    • 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.
