Yes. Definitely get your permit. I know this may sound counter-intuitive, but the pattern among gun-grabbers around the world has been to require:
licensing
registration
proof of competency
proof of membership in a shooting club
Get the picture? If nothing else, having a CWP may ultimately provide a modicum of assurance the "the tiger eats you last." As far as finding gun holders with a view towards confiscation...well there's no escaping that. They'll know the minute you purchase one. It's only a matter of tweaking legislation to the point where they can sift through all the available electronic records: bought ammo, targets, firearms accessories, or paid for range time on your credit or debit card? Purchased arms within the last 15 years? The data's out there just waiting to be mined.

That makes sense. Also, the cost and regulations required to acquire a permit may increase in the future.
