Renewing CCW Permit?

[zofoman]

Curious to know...from the few people that still visit this old site...are you folks renewing your CCW since the recent constitutional carry went into effect?

I renewed mine earlier this year and also re-took the Minnesota portion at Nebraska Shooters (thanks Justin) in April so I would have that for my fall fishing trip up there.  MN requires you to take their course for out-of-state renewal.  I plan to continue to renew just for piece of mind & ability to purchase firearms without having to obtain a separate purchase permit.  I also like to retake & refresh on the CCW rules & regs every few years as there is always good information exchanged no matter where those classes are taken or who is leading the course.   

Anyone?

I renewed mine for a couple of reasons.  One is the purchase permit function, the other is for reciprocity in other states.  There are advantages in some states that don't have full reciprocity as well.  I guess a 3rd reason is that I believe having the permit might carry some weight if I were ever to be involved in a shooting incident.  I encourage everyone to consider keeping the permit as long as it is around.
