“Such a safeguard would seem to be part of the Second Amendment’s ‘well regulated’ standard...

Nonsense. The "well regulated" phrase is part of an illuminating clause, not a condition. The "right" is reserved to The People to keep and bear arms without infringement. Requirements such as permits, training, certification, etc. are quite simply infringements and therefore unconstitutional.

“I am concerned about its lack of any provision for education and training of individuals who choose to exercise the right to concealed carry," the governor wrote . . ."

All he had to do was look at those states had had similar low thresholds and see what happened there. As with "Shall Issue" - nada.

“lack of any provision for education and training”

Anyone who wants training can get it.

Weenie!

I have the Idaho CWP and have completed all the training for the Enhanced CWP. Just have to do the fingerprints, photo and send them a check. Having the CWP is a convenience for me when making firearms purchases and also serves for reciprocity when visiting states that honor it. There will still be a demand for the training and the CWP. The one thing it does offer is freedom from accidentally becoming a felon if you have a weapon concealed and fail to have the CWP in your immediate possession in a location that requires it.

Lying Bloomberg ran ads from his "Everytown for Gun Safety" claiming the bill would dismantle the CWP laws and processes. That's a damn lie. The CWP/ECWP remain for those who wish to pursue them.

I had a pleasant afternoon at the range shooting 45Auto and 40S&W with very respectable groups. My wife's fancy Kimber 380 was fun as well. The Taurus PT-22 managed to irritate both of us. It failed to feed the rounds in the mag. Only the one in the tube fired and ejected. This evening I determined the problem to be caused by the magazine. The front edge between the barrel feed ramp and mag follower needed to be trimmed down. Expecting better results next time. Taurus never fails to disappoint when you take an NIB fun to the firing line for the first time.
