VA Dinger, the Grey Group website store is showing the dates for this class as 7/30-7/31/12 and NOT 7/23-7/24/12 and indicated above. What are the correct dates?

They actually have a place there that serves lunch (burgers, fries, etc.)

The last few times I was up at Blue Trails Range (end of Summer to mid-Fall), I don't recall that food stand being open. There's also really not much in that immediate area as far as food goes. You pretty much have to head back towards I-91 and down Research Dr to East Main St in Meriden for food, about a 15 minute drive each way if you don't hit lunchtime traffic.

Andy, it is 7/23-24. Apologies for the confusion, this was my mistake, not GGT's.

I have a spare glock 19 and will be at the class if anybody from out of state wants to use it.

It does have factory sights and trigger and a factory extended slide release.

I have xtra mags a leather desantis belt slide and a double mag carrier.

Bring your own ammo.

I only have one xtra pistol setup.

Email me if you need it.

for those out of staters, I am considering the class, anybody gone through the out of state CCW process? Hassle free? I am from VT with no CCW permitting, so I am trying to figure out if it will be worth it.
thanks,
Max

ETA, after reviewing the application paperwork, it appears I may not be able to get the out of state permit, I have adequate proof of training, BUT vermont has no ccw permits which is listed as a requirement, is this correct?

for those interested, I just got off the phone. To get a permit in CT as an out of state resident you must have a current pistol permit elsewhere. So for a Vermont resident I must get an out of state permit in any other state before being eligible for a CT out of state permit.

If you're in VT or NJ, or if you have a "neutered" CCW license from MA or NY (or no home state CCW capability), you can use the FL concealed weapons or firearms license (for example) to get the CT pistol permit (as a non-resident of both states).

The FL CWP can be obtained by anyone who can meet the eligibility requirements, regardless of home state CCW licensing or lack of licensing, and you don't need to travel to FL to obtain it. Here is the website: http://licgweb.doacs.state.fl.us/weapons/index.html. The class is in July, so if you step on it, you might be able to apply for and receive the FL CWP in time to apply for and receive the CT pistol permit.
