Inhanced permit is the way to go.......the regular permit is restricted a lot where you can carry. You can however get the regular one and get it inhanced later. Taking the class is really a good thing.
I know enhanced is better, but I wash gas stations at night so that's about the only time (as of now) i'll be needing to carry a pistol with me. Will definitely look into enhanced down the road.Quote:

got mine at the hwy patrol station at batesville. there were only certain days of the week you could apply two years ago. and i have my weapon on me 90% of the time and the other 10% it is in my vehicle. i would never think about open carry.
I don't care how you carry...just carry! I OC , wife CCs.
Take the test, it will help you much.
The class is very worth while and everybody should take it, not only covers laws and rules...it covers how to act or react in differen't scenario's......and if you cannot shoot good enough to pass the shooting test, you will be before you leave there.
gt, i have a little problem with you, not so much with your wife...Quote:

Weapons permit allows you to open carry, not concealed carry. Gun can be carried in a shoulder bag, case, purse.
No permit allows you to open carry, not concealed carry. Gun can be carried in a shoulder bag, case, purse.
I wish gun education/ gun training was a requirement for every voting citizen
It was at one time, but the powers that be decided to take it out of schoolsQuote:

Constitutional carry is in the full senate now in MS. May not need any permit to carry the way you want in the state.
Whats that got to do with concealed weapons classes ?Quote:

No cc allowed rule in the hospital where I work, also no security. Sooo.... I carry! Plus concealed carry means concealed. No ONE should KNOW u have it. Better to be in jail with a chance of getting out than dead! Especially jail now a days. Guarenteed meals and free medical. But I won't get all that started up hahaha.
Illegal to carry in churches.
Dont think so in Mississippi......they changed that law a few weeks ago I thinkQuote:

We are in arkansas. And your right it is illegal in churches. But..........your church CAN vote it in, and ours did, then its legal. But that didn't change anything. We were all carrying anyways before it was voted in.
So, what you are advocating is "do as you want" and the constituted laws be damned? That makes great fodder for the anti-gun nuts.
Not advocating anything. Just saying a concealed weapon is consealed and no one should know about it. I guess I am advocating to always be prepared to protect yourself. I work in the ER and if some people saw the kind of CRAZY that I get to see on a daily bases they would be terrified to get out of the house and go to the grocery store. Be prepared guys everything is always all good.....until it aint! As for the constitution...I was n't knocking a thing. I have the constitutional right to protect me and my family. Why should the rights of a criminal trump mine? I know thats a crazy question, but is a legit one....all the crazies, drugy's, jailbirds that I see at work think that in order for me personally to have rights...is a violation of their rights. I don't and never will understand that. I hope i am not offending you jiglinger, but these are just my views based off of what my surroundings are. I love the police and always will say let them handle it...but most of the time things happen so quickly by the time the police arrive someone is dead and the bad guy gets away... for now. I know they will get whats coming to them some day... but in the mean time they have the opportunity to strike someone else again. I will protect me til the police get to me and then they can have it. I will avoid a gun confrontation at all cost but if its not avoidable...I wanna be the one alive.
As for the antigun nuts..... They dont have to carry if they don't want to. When danger comes their way they better hope they are dang good fighters with their high heels. hahahahaha
Say what you want, but when you violate the law that puts you on the outside.
Hey guys.....the subject of this thread is... how do I get a concealed carry permit....... its not about arguing the laws etc. Lets get back on track please.
Thank you
