What does it take to get one in Utah?
I got mine a couple of years ago. The requirements are pretty minimal--this page spells out everything you need. Basically, you just need to take a basic firearm familiarity course from a BCI approved instructor, then supply the application fee, fingerprint cards (which most instructors will do for you as part of the course), copy of your driver license, and a photograph of yourself.
I got all my requirements taken care of in a few hours, then just had to wait for the permit to arrive in the mail a few weeks later.
Since 1998. forms, background checks, letters of character reference, approved permit course, picture, fingerprints and money. There is a lot to it.
I think every law abiding citizen should have one even if they plan to never handle a gun in their life!
I need to renew mine this year. I remember having to go through their little course, demonstrate I could shoot a semi auto and a revolver, get fingerprinted, fill out tons o' paperwork and voila!
I need to get my wife hers here soon.
We're all doing a pistol training course at Front Site down in Nevada in March. Should be fun. :2guns:
So if i wanted to take the course, how would I go about finding when And where one is taught? :ne_nau:

They also rent machine guns, so if you're in a mood to drop hundreds of dollars on ammo, Rangemasters can help you burn it off at an alarming rate. :assault:

Usually a bunch of classes advertised in the Sunday newspaper in the firearms section.
I got mine a couple of years ago. I carry a Sig Sauer P239 in .40 caliber.

A guy came over to my place a few years back. I got about 4 of my buddies, and we all took the course that night in my apartment. About an hour and a half, and $45.Quote:

I actually got my permit before I even owned a handgun. It's just really nice to have.
I received my permit at the old Totally Awesome Guns and Range. The class was taught by CLARK APOSHIAN who did agreat job.
I carry a Glock 19.
Where is Totally Awesome Guns and Range? were you able to do this in one day?
Orem Rec Center you can do it too
I know this post is old, but if anyone is still interested in getting their CFP here you go. For twenty bucks you can't beat that.

Cool! I know there's some guy in Utah doing it for free for teachers too.
I just got mine renewed, but sometime I need to get my wife her permit.
