What would you guys think should be required as far as a license/permit and training in order to get a nationwide ccw if one existed? I am not sure where I would start, I never had a permit, I was a cop when I was 18 and have been a LEO my entire adult life. I do know that on the rare chance I go to a public range I usually see more then one person that scares the hell out of me with their shooting and safety skills ( or lack of shooting and and safety skills) . Please don't turn this into a "Cops are all idiots about guns and I shoot better than all cops, etc." argument. What would you think is acceptable as far as training and licensing in order to get a CCW good anywhere in the US?
I think a fairly reasonable class in safety, carrying, and shooting your handguns, along with a background check, would be acceptable. Maybe a photo ID for the CCW permit itself?
Thoughts?
