>> destroying a practice target with 30 rounds of 9 mm ammunition fired from three distances
“destroyed” that practice target, did you?
Reading between the lines, I think what the big shot is REALLY saying is, “my groups weren’t so tight”. :-)

That’s common. Had to do that to get my ND and Utah permits.

That’s the procedure in many states that have better gun-friendly reputations than IL.

In South Dakota, it is 5 days (or less) and $10 which you don’t pay if you don’t get approved.

Indiana too. And we are considered a pretty "liberal" state with gun rights.
(Please note the proper use of liberal in this context.)

It makes me wonder if anybody in this process is disqualified for poor marksmanship. What’s the average distance for a civilian defending themselves with a pistol? Ten feet?

Wow. Texas does this too? IMO, that’s insane.
Do all the guys in the ‘hood submit their fingerprints and photos as well?

I have heard of a few here in TX. It seems that in every class of 10 to 20 there’s one that is either barely passes, or fails.
The precision requirements are pretty lax, though... if you can’t clear the bar, you probably *shouldn’t* have a CCW permit.
