So my non-res application for a CT pistol permit was returned to me since I didn't have the required training course. Apparently, only the NRA Basic Pistol course (LTC-002) is sufficient. I've taken the NRA Home Firearms Safety course and 9 handgun courses at the Sig Sauer Academy (Handgun 102, 103, Concealed Carry, Defensive Pistol, Low-Light Operator, etc.).
Does anyone know of a course that *is* an accepted substitute for NRA Basic Pistol? I could take the NRA course, but apart from getting the CT permit, it would be a waste of $100 for me. Something like the Utah CCW course, if acceptable to CT, would be more useful. Ideas? Thanks.
