About the Course
Utah Concealed Firearm Permit (CFP) Add-On Course
Offered Concurrently with Maryland HQL & Maryland Wear & Carry Training
Expand your carry options beyond Maryland with the Utah Concealed Firearm Permit (CFP). This course is offered as an add-on module to our Maryland Handgun Qualification License (HQL) and Maryland Wear & Carry courses, allowing students to complete the Utah permit training during the same training session with minimal additional time.
The Utah CFP is widely recognized and can significantly expand reciprocity, allowing lawful concealed carry in numerous states beyond Maryland. For individuals already investing time into firearms training, this add-on provides a practical and efficient way to broaden your legal carry options.
This training satisfies the requirements established by the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) and will provide the documentation necessary to apply for a Utah Concealed Firearm Permit (resident or non-resident).
As with all Equal Defense Collective training, the course is delivered in a supportive, professional, and inclusive environment focused on responsible firearm ownership, legal awareness, and practical decision-making.
