Title: NE/MN CCW Class?
Post by: rudy on November 27, 2012, 01:07:02 PM

Does anyone here offer or know of an NE/MN joint CCW class?  I recently became a Nebraska resident so my MN permit is no longer valid here.  NE permits are not recognized by MN and my MN permit (which I need to keep) needs to be renewed in June, so I am hoping to kill two birds with one stone.

Thanks.

phorvick does Nebraska Classes and is also a MN instructor.  I have not seen any classes listed from him in a while but you could try sending him a note and see what he has to say.

Are you saying you want a NE resident and a MN non-resident?

I think what you want is a NE and UT permit - that will allow you to carry in MN - as well as a few others. I think most instructors here do NE+UT.

You can do one of two things:

- Go through the Nebraska Class with an instructor that is offering the Utah add-on.

- Get your Minnesota non-resident permit.  I don't know much about the MN permit other than they require you to apply in person and they do offer non-resident permits.

The Florida and Arizona suggestions are always good options, but it appears that Minnesota does not currently honor either of those.  They are still honoring the Utah permit.

I didn't catch what part of Nebraska you are in.  Let us know and we can suggest an instructor that offers Utah as an add-on.  Chris Zeeb is highly recommended if you are near Lincoln or Syracuse.

Nebraska / Utah classes here:   www.NebraskaConcealedCarry.com (http://www.NebraskaConcealedCarry.com)

This will get you coverage in MN if that is what you are after.

Thanks

Thanks for all the fast and informative replies.

Basically, I want to be able to carry in MN--I have family there and visit a couple of times a year.

I hadn't considered the UT permit, but that's a nice option, since as mentioned above, MN requires an inconvenient in-person application.  Besides, it appears that the Utah permit application fee is actually less than the MN renewal cost would be.  =)

I'm in Lincoln, by the way.

Thanks again

Edited to add: Does anyone offer classes on Sundays?  I'm usually a bit tied up on Saturdays.

Chris,
I am looking for  a CCW class to take ASAP, but Jan 12th seems to be the soonest one you will be offering.
Also, where would you do the live fire training?

Yes Jan 12th is the soonest as of now unless I find the time to add another in December
