Hhmm The current online regs don't seem to spell it out like I have seen before, but I believe the way it works is: You can get a firearms license if you show proof of a resident license from the last 5 years or show proof of education requirements from a qualifiyng jurisdiction. In other words, your non-resident license won't cut it, but a resident license from any state would. Archery has simliar requirements, but I think that absolutely requires education proof.
