Re: Utah Concealed Firearm Permit class - Hampton, Virginia 6/19
I participated in the first Utah Concealed Carry Course yesterday though Provocative Shooter at Bass Pro Shops in Hampton, Va. Foremost, I would like to extend my appreciation to Provocative Shooters for bringing their Richmond Bass Pro class down to Hampton Roads area. I want to say thank you to Jim Reynolds for the knowledge and level of professionalism he provided. The instructor was very personable and definitely on top of his profession. The instruction was concise and clear and the exercises were relevant to real world situations one may encounter. With Jim’s importance on real world situations and schooling his techniques to overcome the odds, this course offers the new, inexperienced, handgun owner the chance to practice techniques that may save their life. I have always said it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it, the same can be said for proper training and practice methods. It was most importantly fun, enjoyable and a great learning experience. Anyone with a Virginia Permit (Combined with Utah 33 States) or even without one (Just Utah 29 States) should look into this course. Hope to see them return to Bass Pro month after month…
Thanks, Josh

Thank you very much for the nice compliments Josh! The Utah class is one of my favorites to do. I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
(as an aside, the name of the company is Proactive Shooters, not Provocative, although I have been accused of that from time to time.

Provocative is a first. We've been called Protective, Reactive, Professional, Pro, Pro-action, etc.
Proactive Shooters is a play on the phrase "active shooter", which of course is bad. We want people to "take a proactive approach to their personal safety".

How long does Utah take to process these applications and issue the permits?

By statute, 60 days. The clock starts when they have debited your payment for your permit.9MMDerringer wrote:How long does Utah take to process these applications and issue the permits?
On average, they're running around the 55-60 day mark now due to the high volume of interest in the permit.
