The problem is that some states choose to not recognize LEOSA as intended.
I am LEOSA eligible, but found it far simpler to just get an OK Concealed Carry permit. Having a OK permit makes it easier to carry outside OK.
LEOSA and OK Law have differing restrictions about where you can carry nd where you can not.
States issue unique ID concealed carry cards. LEOSA requires Agency issued Retired Credentials and qualification cards issued by the qualifying agency and state. There is no consistency in their form. And difficult to verify.
My former agency by written policy prohibits my Agency from qualifying me for LEOSA. LEOSA requires shooting the State defined police officers qualification course in which the retired Officer lives, and have a card stating that they have qualified. Card is good for one year.
LEOSA does not Identify who gives the qualification course and who issues the card.
Here is a press release on LEOSA Act reform bill that address some of the conflicts in LEOSA. Read this and you will start to see why it is far easier for a Retired Law Enforcement Officer to get a concealed carry permit.
