2nd Amendment and the Supreme Court

With the decision from McDonald v. City of Chicago about to come out, a lot of people are concerned about what the U.S. Supreme Court is going to say. I’ve been Utah Concealed Carry Courses all over Illinois recently and I can tell you that the people there are definitely interested in the outcome. If you or any of your friends are interested in getting their Utah Concealed Carry permit in Illinois, please let me know. For your viewing pleasure, here is a little graphic about our 2nd Amendment.

Why should you get a Utah Concealed Firearm Permit?

To start off, your Utah permit is valid in over 30 states. That means that you will be able to carry a fully loaded, concealed firearm in a state where your permit is recognized (Colorado, Florida, Michigan and New Hampshire only recognize the Utah permit from Utah residents). Take a look at the following map to see where the Utah permit is recognized. States with a Red or Black color recognize the Utah permit.

Cost:

The class will cost $75 and prepayment is required to reserve your seat (Google Checkout Button below). In addition to the 4 hour class, you will receive everything that you need to get your Utah permit (fingerprints, notary stamp, passport photo and a photocopy of your driver license). After the course is over, our instructor will hand deliver the application for you. Space is limited and classes are filling up fast so register below to reserve your seat. After you have registered, we will contact you with information about prepayment. In addition to the $75 for the class + materials, you will have to pay the State of Utah $65.25 for the actual permit (the State accepts checks and credit cards). You can send that payment along with our instructor to Utah.

$75.00 - Utah CCW Class + all materials $150.00 - Utah class for 2 people

Urban Camo Duracoat Custom Paint from Crusader Weaponry

Getting Started

I have to admit that I’m a sucker for good action movies…and that’s how this whole Urban Camo Duracoat thing got started. I must have been in Iraq when the movie “Shooter” came out and missed it in the theaters. My brother-in-law introduced me to the movie a while ago and I loved the camo jobs on all of the rifles there. That’s when I started looking into how to do a quality camo job on my AR. Several friends and forum discussions led me to believe that Duracoat is the best option. Duracoat is available in several colors, doesn’t interfere with the operation of the firearm and lasts a lifetime. There appear to be several options out there to Duracoat a rifle by yourself. After researching how much work it was to paint a rifle, I realized that I wanted to find a professional to do the work for me. I neither have the time nor the patience to learn the art of Duracoating.

Joe with Crusader Weaponry

This is where Joe Chetwood with Crusader Weaponry came in - Joe has a blog with updates about what he’s doing at gundoctor.wordpress.com. I was doing some research on UtahConcealedCarry.com and saw that one member recommended his work. I made contact with Joe about the rifle job I wanted and you can see the result below. Needless to say, I’m very happy with the final product! From start to finish, Joe professionally assisted me in selecting the colors, the camo job and even worked with a last minute change in both colors and design. Some people in the gun community are short-tempered and think they know everything…well, Joe does know just about everything but doesn’t make the average consumer feel like a dummy - something I look for! Joe responded to emails quickly and always had a helpful answer. It’s a big deal to paint your favorite rifle with a lifetime, custom paint job and Joe made the process super easy. Thanks Joe! Here’s how the thing turned out.
