Hey all,
Going to be taking my state required carry permit renewal class tomorrow morning. It consists of a 3-4 hour safety lecture and a 30 round qualification. I understand the need to be updated on legal changes and the need to renew to confirm eligability. My question is what other states require this follow up? Original class was 16 brutal hours of totally useless information and about 20 minutes of actually real information. Do those of you required to take such classes gain anything or do you just see it as a burden or a hoop to jump through to prevent people with just a casual interest in self defense from carrying a firearm? Anyone renewed their illinois permit yet, if so how long did it take for it to all clear the state police?
I did a change of address in 2016, which cost $70-80 (FOID&ccw permits) if i remember correctly and that didnt renew my foid card, i had to renew a year later. Just seems like its designed to complicate things and keep law abiding citizens from easily renewing their permit.
(I hope i posted this in the correct section)
Thanks
