 Does this mean ALL legal handgun owners may carry in Nebraska?  No need for reciprocity? Even people from -gasp- NY and Hawaii?

Nfoa will be partnering with local trainers to give free training to those who want it.

I guess that'll put an end to paid NRA Basic Pistol classes in Nebraska. Wow!

are you here to support the  NFOA mission or to prop up the NRA?

The only reason I'm a member of the NRA is because I'm a member of the ENGC. (I am a lifetime member of the SAF and an annual member of GOA also)
I only stated NRA because that's the only nationally recognized pistol class I'm aware of. I believe there are more than a few certified instructors on this site who have classes that supplement their income. I am not one of them. However, the NFOA replacing their classes with free ones will certainly take money from their pockets. I didn't think they would agree to voluntarily give that up.
Perhaps you have already convinced enough of them to donate their time and money for the greater good (and the NFOA) I just find that somewhat incredulous. Maybe a one time thing, but that would be all.
I had thought of a workable idea though.
Business cards printed up with the NFOA logo on the front and the 4 rules of safe gun handling on the back.  Perhaps with the advisement "Know the Law" under the NFOA logo. These could be given out to members (at the Gretna get together with plenty of extras to Shooter for gun shows)
If every member who wanted some got 10 or 15 it would both promote gun safety and the NFOA.
I don't know how much a box of raised letter, glossy cards would cost, but I'd put in the first $100 to get 500 made up.

What. Nobody likes the card idea? I looked into plastic ones also. They would be very durable.

I approve of the card idea...however, most people will take one, glance at it and pitch it like so many other "business" cards one receives in life's travels.   
If they were told emphatically to stuff it/keep it in their wallet/purse....maybe they will re-read what's on there sometime down the road when they're searching for that lost lottery ticket.  People are so complacent, its a wonder the human race has survived this long.

We were looking at "recruiting" cards since a lot of folks aren't too interested in taking our brochures all the time.  We could have how to join on one side and the safety rules and how to find the online modules for the free training.  Online training will never replace hands-on training. However, we wanted to make sure folks could quickly and easily access the information they need to be aware of what they can't and can do.  All modules will end with statements to encourage them to take advantage of other training opportunities across Nebraska. 

Any instructors who want to help build a mini module or two will have the opportunity to include their training company information as a way to give back for their support.

In order to keep my non-resident Pennsylvania permit I need the Ne CCW. I think you need it for Iowa, Kansas, etc. also.
