One way (legally) around this is to obtain CCW's from multiple states. I went through http://www.fridayharborgunrunners.com/ and took their class that meets the requirements for Arizona, Utah, and Oregon. Oregon recognizes no other state's CCW, while the other two have reciprocity with several states. Having permits from WA, OR, AZ, and UT allows a person to carry in over 30 states.

yeah I'm just being pernicious.
Nowhere in the BOR does it state one has to have training to exercise a right. Only the states have used their unconstitutional authority to impose a special tax on the law abiding citizens and now without equal representation.
It's time to come up with a National card for concealed carry and the only requirement should be that you are not "prevented" from possession/use/carriage due to a criminal conviction or mental disorder of a magnitude that you are unfit and a danger to self or others.
Too many federally unconstitutional state rules and laws make the "Privileges and Immunities Clause" and the 10A invalid. Any "license or permit" issued in one state should have to be honored in all states.
