There is no requirement in the legislation that agencies must provide the training. Yes, that's sad albeit true.

Be safe.

As a retired police sergeant, i also have qualified in illinois and truly owe the fop and others a debt of gratitude. the LEOSA did not specify that you have to qualify with only the weapons you're going to carry, however i did have to qualify with one revolver and one automatic through Bloomingdale P.D. home of the people who drafted the legislation and training! my hats off to them also! dr john
