I'm in VA now, with a VA driver's license and I'd like to get my first concealed carry permit.
What is the simplest way to meet the training requirement? Also, is there a step-by-step guide somewhere on how to get the VA in-state carry licence? |

Process varies by county, here is the Fairfax cty process: http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/courts/circuit/sp-248.htm Recommend in person training with an NRA instructor. |

To answer your question, the absolute simplest way to meet the training requirement is to take one of the on-line classes. There also are classes offered at the Gun Show this weekend at Dulles Expo center. After that an NRA basic pistol course is the next easiest option. However none of those are the best training options. You really should take a course that covers VA specific laws and case law. |

No, it doesn't. The process is set by the state. If your county is asking for anything extra or different, you need to call bullshit on them. Quoted:

ALL Virginia lethal force law is case law. Their is no statute law for anyone. There is a lot of statute law that applies to buying/owning a handgun, where you can and cannot carry, etc. Self defense case law isn't the only thing that applies to learning what you need to know to legally carry a handgun in Virginia. I would recommend taking a good Concealed Carry class from an experience local instructor to get accurate facts and information from real experience. E.g. John Murphy at FPF Training, or Elite Shooting Sports. It is well worth the time and money to get correct information instead of hearsay, and be able to ask questions, and get in some live fire. |

It is NOT "lethal force" law. How and when you can use lethal force in Virginia is solely case law. It is actually rather good. But before you consider using lethal force you had better understand the how and when. The consequences make buying, owning, and carrying pale in comparison.
