Years ago, my MA non-res was paper, and for years the MA res was a bit large (plastic, I think) that required an unusually large wallet or card case. Now all of mine (MA, NH, CT & FL) are plastic and driver-license size.
CCW Permit - Card, Paper, or ????

My lifetime carry permit (concealed or open) was issued on
a pink paper, very thin stock as well. So i bought some
lamination sheets and did it myself. But now that dang thing
has about had it. I understand Indiana now offers a card
that's about like a Driver License card so i'm gonna check
into it and upgrade my old fraying permit.

VA issues a card by the sheriff but must be carried with photo ID.
I had several passport photos when I first got mine. I just keep using the same ones. I never age
Illinois is a plastic card, and they use the same picture from your drivers license, regardless of what the picture you send in looks like.

Pistols only? No revolvers?

MN is paper. My daughter is an elementary teacher with a little machine that laminates.
Works good.

My Iowa permit is a plastic card, I think it cost a little extra, otherwise my county issues a 1/2 sheet paper. My Non-resident Utah, Minnesota, and Arizona permits are all plastic cards.

WA state is a paper card, no picture and very easy to obtain. Fill out the paperwork and give them a check. No classes, no test, nothing. This is probably why not many states have reciprocity with WA. I also have a Utah permit. It's plastic, with a picture and security holograms. It requires a class and is accepted in most states in the West (except CA,CO, and OR). It's also accepted in a lot of the Eastern states. The reason I have the WA license is because I'm a resident, and to get the non resident Utah permit, I had to have the WA one. I sure wish they would simplify everything by making a national reciprocity. Can you imagine having to get a different drivers licenses to go on a cross country trip?

A revolver is a pistol. Sam Colt said so.

Laminated photo ID in Kentucky. I'm on my fifth one. First, right after we became a shall-issue state, was for three years. Since then they've been good for five. No re-qualification required and no limit on number of guns or identifying which guns you can carry.
CC only became legal here about nineteen years ago.

My Georgia Weapons Carry License is a nice plastic card, very much like my GA DL. Problem is, just like the DL folks, they keep putting a picture of some fat, gray-bearded, nefarious looking character on the permit.

Mine is just like Franks. I carry it in a folder wallet with my concealed carry badge. The local gendarmes love it when I get out to help on a traffic stop, flip open my wallet to show them that I'm with them and say " I got your 6 my brother".

Guilford Co. N. C. is paper laminated when you get it and, must be signed. Good for 5 years. If you do not let it expire it's no problem to renew, no tests qualifying etc.
