drove over to Dubuque today for a class for the Utah concealed carry permit.

... Utah?

Utah, like Florida, issues a “non-resident” CCW permit. That means that in states that have reciprocity with Utah (Like Texas and 30ish others) Talon and I will be able to carry concealed.

We can’t in Iowa because we don’t have an Iowa permit, but even when we get that, it’s not recognized in a lot of states that the Utah one is.

Also, the Utah one doesn’t come with stupid restrictions about “you must carry $500 in cash for this permit to be valid” like our current sheriff does. And we have it better than some counties. Dubuque basically doesn’t issue permits at all unless you’re buds with the sheriff.
