      Wear and Carry Renewal classes

      Your renewal should be submitted around 90 days before your W&C permit expires. At this time my price for renewal class is $125. Students who take my inital class and bring a new inital student at the time of their renewal get their renewal at no charge - forever (until MD General Assembly...

      Checking out the competition ... some pretty scary guys out there giving classes

      Since I show an interest in 2A, Facebook slams me with every ad from everyone giving MD W&C classes.

      Is FL non-resident valid for DE residents?

      Is the FL non-resident permit valid for DE residents? If so, a class like NRA Basic Pistol looks simpler than DE resident permit class; or even MD HQL with an instructor issued paper certificate with the proper notation that satisfies FL nonresident.

      Liked it a lot more than I expected. Less recoil than I expected from 30-06 and I figured out the sights real quick. I'm in the fan club now.
