Minnesota Concealed Carry
chinaclipper:
OK so we lost concealed carry for Minnesota. I understand that. What do we have to do as Nebraska concealed carry users to get our certificate recognized by Minnesota? is it more education? Is it different classroom/field training? What is it and how/what can we do? Do we have to/should we
completely re-designed the way that we instruct and field train those who receive our concealed carry permit? I travel to Minnesota so I'd appreciate the ability to carry legally when I do. I do not want to have to be told to "get a Minnesota permit". That isn't going to work and we know it.
RLMoeller:
What are you talking about? When did we lose Minnesota? You can't lose something you never had. I don't recall Minnesota ever honoring the Nebraska permit. The Utah permit used to be honored by Minnesota and is no longer.
We would like to have that recognition, that isn't the issue. Please explain why you don't want to be told to get a Minnesota permit but you find it completely acceptable to impose additional restrictions to all Nebraskans seeking a CHP.
You say "That isn't going to work and we know it." What are you talking about? Why isn't that going to work? The current situation isn't right, but I won't support additional restrictions in Nebraska just because you don't want to deal with Minnesota. Your question should be directed to Minnesota and asking them when they will support more freedom than to advocate for more restrictions in Nebraska.

The Utah permit is not longer recognized in Minnesota... Nebraska's has never been accepted. If I recall correctly, the reason is that Nebraska does not require a minimum number of hours of training. We are only required to take the amount of time necessary to complete the required objectives.
It seems rather unlikely that there will be major revision to the Concealed Carry Act in Nebraska due to Minnesota's non-recognition of our permit. I guess you might keep your fingers crossed (and contact your representatives in Washington) for national reciprocity.
