I just got off the phone with a friend who had just did the shooting and the school for the Arkansas concealed carry and I told him I didnt think they were connected, he said the officer that did the training told his class that if stopped to include the CCL along with the drivers license and proof of insurance as it might save a problem with the officer. I have the 74th license issued in Ar and the first class was not informed, has probably been modified since it was passed. Jeff
