The enhanced CCW is good in something like 38 states and allows carry on University campuses and replaces NICS checks, good for 5 years.

The Idaho LEOSA shoot is done by our local Sheriff's Department and consists of a 15 round course, all from ready position, at 10 yards. No time limits, no reloading, and three stages of 5 rounds each. I could likely pass this in my sleep while handcuffed. There is no cost but you supply your own firearm and ammo. Your permit, good in all 50 states, says "handgun."

I took the Enhanced class for the firearms purchasing benefits, but our "instructor" was a fool. I won't go into detail of all his inanities, but his course of fire was 100 rounds at 10 yards into a 10" circle. However, it was not scored and was just to see how you handle the firearm. I kept mine in a group the size of a baseball, and the instructor was snarky about that. My online review was not kind to him.
