    Default Re-certifying after 10 years.

    A friend of mine lives about 30 miles north of leadville, in lake county. He is up for renewing his ccw. The sheriff there told him he wouldn't renew his permit until he took a ccw class again, because the last time he took it was 10 years ago. I was confused. I have never heard of this in colorado with the research I have done. Am I missing something or is this sheriff out of line?

    Sorry, Raider3, but the Sheriff is right. "Proof of training" such as a CCW class has to be less than 10 years old. Check the SO's website for a copy of the application with training requirements, etc., but all of the Metro counties are clear about the date requirement on the training documentation per CRS 18-12-203. For all who are current, make sure you watch your expiration date and get renewed! It will save you time, money, and grief. :)

    I was told that the 10 year renewal requires another CCW class. I was also told that it may eventually be changed but I guess at this point it hasn't. The sheriff is correct.

    Hmm, I'll re read and and do some more research because I thought it was less than 10 years from when you apply, and then you just pay your renew every 5 years

    It doesn't suprise me. In Mn, you have to redo the class every 5 yrs for renewal of your permit.

    Is it really a big deal? There could well be law changes you would be un awair of.

    Is it a big deal that it will break the bank, no. its a money and a control thing with government, no matter state, local or federal. It is a big deal because it just more reaching to nit pick our rights. And if we let them take a little here and a little there, before you know it you have lost your rights. That's my rant for the night!

    I want to make sure I understand this. I got my permit in 12/2007 it expires in 01/2013 I assumemy next one will be good till 2018 (unless we have Constitutional carry by then).

    Now, are you saying that in 2018 I will have to take another class?

    In Ohio, you just have to do 2 hours of live fire.
