A license is a license
Interesting. Qualifying with each weapon that you carry. Here, the just give you a permit and you can carry what you want.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

In Oklahoma if you qual with a revolver you can only carry revolvers. If you qual with a semi-auto then you can carry either. Dumb really. I would totally suck with a revolver. If it wasn’t for Tom Given’s Instructor class I wouldn’t know squat about them. But Oklahoma says I’m good to go.
Gun laws, defying logic since at least 1934.

I wonder if you have to qualify with a keyboard in order to keep a blog there, and with a microphone if you want to speak in public.

The rules in Texas mirror those in Oklahoma.

Aaron, we here in Texas generally prefer to point out that rules elsewhere, especially in OK, mirror those in Texas, not the other way around. Even if OK got concealed carry before us, which would just go to show how wise they were to implement laws mirroring ours, even before we did.

It’s not quite “qualifying with each weapon you carry.” You have to qualify with each semi-auto that you want to carry. If you qualify with a revolver, you can carry all revolvers, not just the one you qualified with.

Rob: it actually used to be that you had to qualify with each revolver as well. I think they got rid of that in 2004 or so.
In defense of my state: As annoying as the per-gun permitting is (qualifications can really drag out when the guy ahead of you has a sack full of eight guns; true story, happened to me), Nevada has little beyond the bare minimum in terms of no-carry zones. UNLV/CCSN, child care facilities, and that’s it. No laundry list of no-carry places, or fiddly rules about things like what percentage of a given restaurant’s sales come from alcohol, or extra legal consequences for failing to notice a no-carry posting on private property.
And no discrimination against non-citizens, either.

I’m really hoping this will come to pass. It will make qualifying for CCW easier, faster and more logical. As it stands now, you have to qualify separately on a Glock 26, 19, and 17- just because each size is a different model number. Shoot any size Springfield XD in 9mm, you’re good to carry any of the subcompact, compact, or fullsize models- because Springfield makes no model distinction between each. (NV CCWs for semis are made/model/cal specific)
This change will free up time to do more work in class on other topics, or go through more actual training on a handgun rather than, “make 30 holes in that paper.” “Make 30 more.” “Make 30 more.”
