🎉 Great news for Virginia gun owners! 🎉

Attention all Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) holders: Attorney General Jason Miyares has just delivered a crucial clarification regarding CHP renewals.

Some judges in Virginia have been misinterpreting the law, insisting that individuals renewing their CHP must provide proof of "in person" training. This requirement has caused headaches for many, especially those who no longer possess their original training certificate or whose certificate fails to specify the type of class attended.

But fear not! The Attorney General has officially set the record straight: there is NO mandate to demonstrate prior in-person training when renewing your CHP.

Check out the formal opinion here for all the details:https://www.oag.state.va.us/files/Opinions/2024/24-006-Hall-issued.pdf

Huge thanks to General Miyares for providing this much-needed clarification! Let's spread the word and ensure everyone is aware of their rights.
