Re: Utah Concealed Firearm Permit class, King of Prussia, Pa.
First off, the class is not sponsored by the NRA. I am certified by the NRA as an instructor. Utah requires me to be an NRA certified instructor in order to be certified by Utah BCI to teach this course. NRA and Utah standards do not permit live ammo in the classroom environment.
Now, I'll make the assumption that you have never taken a classroom based firearms training class. It is a standard protocol whether, an NRA class, a state run course, etc, that no live ammunition is allowed in the classroom. This is for safety reasons. You are welcome to research the subject. Look at any firearms training company across the country. Check their website, and you will see that no one allows live ammo in a "cold" classroom. Range classes are obviously different. Call any instructor you wish, and ask whether they allow live ammo in the room. There is a difference between "supporting pro-2A" businesses, and not allowing ammo in the classroom during a gun safety class.
As an instructor, I have to teach with the understanding that someone in the room may be taking this class with absolutely zero knowledge about guns, especially in a state that requires no prior firearms training before issuing a LTCF. The safest course of action is that we prohibit live ammo in the room....for everyone (myself included).
If you feel that you want to cancel your NRA membership because of a safety rule, that is your choice. If you cannot understand the need for the highest degree of safety in this class and you want to cancel your registration, that is your choice as well.
