New fixed version of the flyer. It should print but not be able to be changed. Old one removed.

I carry a gun because a Police Officer is too heavy.

Nice! I have some flyers I've been using here and there, not quite as fancy. I like the code scanner how did you set that up?

In Acrobat 9 there is a way to place a barcode, but it is static. I set a text field with the website/facebook information then linked it ti the QR code. I am still working on making the QR code dynamic.

Right.. Or we end up having lots of questions. Either way its at least as much information as the legal portion of a cpl class and that can last three hours...

Hi all.  This is my first post on MOC.

I attended the OC seminar today and have to say that I got far more from it than the first one I attended at Freedom Firearms in Battle Creek last January. Perhaps the inital exposure gave me some familiarity with the subject, however in talking to Ryan afterward I learned he recently updated the presentation.

Being a new handgun owner, as soon as the weather warms up I'll start the CPL process.

Ryan's presentation was excellent.

Glad you enjoyed the presentation. Every time I give the presentation a new wrinkle comes too light. And thanks for your suggestions I plan to add a FAQ page for the new gun owner.
