Being Less Than Prudent

--- Quote ---It is my understanding the NRA rules are more toward range safety (which makes the unloaded rule make sense), where as Cooper's are carry or general rules. Obviously you are not going to go hunting with an empty shotgun or rifle and then load it when the game shows up.

As I said, Cooper's rules cover everything. The NRA's .....do not.
They would do well to promote The Four Rules instead of their rehash of various iterations of the "10 Commandments of Gun Safety" ...... but won't, for the same reason they tried to make a deal with Brad Ashford to do away with our Purchase Permit (in exchange for being "nuetral" on his list of "Guns Too Dangerous for Civilians to Own List" in the wake of Von Maur: I call it "Institutional Arrogance"- they don't like the Purchase Certificate, because it's not their baby ....but WE DO, because it is better than their baby (The NICS). The 4 Rules are better than the gobbledygook they promulgate, but again, it's not their baby.

All excellent points, Jim.
Now can someone please tell me what an "advanced CC holder" is?
Mali:
I think it stands for "Advanced Coffee Cup Holder".

I believe some states have an advanced or enhanced permit that allows carry in places normally off limits.
Witness the attempt to do something similar in Nebraska (last year for teachers) which would have required additional training curricula.
I think Missouri or Mississippi (or one of them other "M" states….) has an enhanced permit of sorts.

Looks like Idaho might also have something they call an Enhanced Permit...

What do I need to bring for the Standard Idaho class?
The only things you will need to bring with you are to the class is: your driver’s license (or other government issued picture ID), and (2) your payment for the class, and a pen. We will provide everything you need to be successful in this class. You do not need to bring a firearm to the class!
What do I need to bring for the Idaho Enhanced class?
The Idaho Enhanced class requires participants to shoot a pistol a minimum of 98 rounds. For this class students will need to bring their handgun of choice, Ear and Eye Protection, at least 100 rounds of factory loaded ammunition, and for our 8 hour classes a sack lunch. [/i]
This may be an old page but it looks like the basic permit may be fairly perfunctory, and the enhanced one requires training and scores the permit holder more reciprocity.
