I recently looked over the newest version of the handgun permit application and noticed handgun permit catagory #4 is for former police officers and reads:
"4. Former Police Officer: If you have resigned or retired, you must show evidence of your tenure in law enforcement, such as a letter from your agency, and a letter from your agency indicating you left in good standing. Additional requirements may apply."
I spent over 10 years in LE while in the military and 3 years as a special agent with the federal government. Both times I resigned under honorable conditions and it does state "resigned" in the definition. Would that qualify me to apply under that catagory?
I also read somewhere, either here or on the MSP webpage, that I would have to qualify with a handgun prior to getting the permit. Does that sound correct?
Has anyone had an experience with this process to include the quilification? Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
