What do you call a license to carry firearms on or about a person in a concealed manner?

In Utah, it's a CFP. I wish they would change the name because so many of the LEOs here think that because it has "Concealed" in the name, that it requires you to conceal even though open-carry is perfectly legal. That's like saying that you can't walk anywhere once you get a drivers license. It is getting better, though.

CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon) in Florida. Since we can carry knives as well as guns it seems fitting.

 

[Barry the Bear]

I call it an infringement but here in Texas I hear it called a CHL.

i don't think it should be called anything, it should be done away with entirely in favor of carry open/concealed without any permit.

 

[Ranger Roberts]

In PA (where I live and work) it's a LTCF. Personally when I type it out I always write CCW but when I say it out loud I always say "conceal carry permit." Too many gunshots have scrambled my last remaining brain cells...

Concealed Weapon Or Firearm License....... (FL)

Our license also allows us to carry ANY weapon from brass knuckles, etc., not just a gun

There appears to numerous accepted generic names, and each State has its own name for the permit. Looking in my wallet I see that Nevada calls it a "Concealed Weapons Permit", Oregon calls it a "Concealed Handgun License", Nevada calls it a "Concealed Firearm Permit", and Utah also calls it a "Concealed Firearm Permit."

 

[Spats McGee]

In Arkansas, it's a CHCL. Concealed Handgun Carry License.

[highlander 5]

Ma is LTC CLASS A,License to Carry Firearm large capacity magazine.

 

[djont57]

MN it's "Permit To Carry A Pistol" (What about my revolvers )

 

[19-3Ben]

In CT it's called a License to Carry Pistols and Revolvers.

Since LCPR sounds absurd and nobody on this forum would understand what I was talking about, I just call it a CCW and be done with it.

Arkansas it is called CHCL
Concealed Handgun Carry License.
