To my knowledge, there is no test--written or practical--for the Utah CFP. It's been several years, though, since I got my CFP, so if I'm mistaken about this Crossfire or one of our other Utah-certified instructors will correct me.

It's a moot point now, though. As of May 11, 2011, Texas residents may not obtain a new Utah CFP without providing proof that they already have a Texas CHL. For CFP renewals, that law goes into effect January 1, 2012.

If it was instead of Utah law you're right, but anyone familiar with the Utah class rules knows they allow instructors to teach more the topics required by Utah, and even combo-state classes if the rules are followed.

That's no longer correct. BCI now requires that the Utah CFP course be taught in its entirety, start to finish, and not comingled with information about other states' laws or concealed carry requirements. BCI no longer allows instructors to teach what used to be called "multi-state permits" classes.

For reference, see the "Utah Concealed Firearms Instructor Newsletter" from April, 2011.

My Texas CHL shooting grading was a joke- everyone passed the firtst time, even though some barely hit the target with a few shots. Instructor was a wild-eyed ultra right-winger that said it was up to us CHLers to save the world!

Are you being serious or satiric?

Yep. Glad I have my Texas CHL with my Utah newly-issued (7/19/11) non-resident CFP as a secondary license.

yup

Utah is revoking some, if they didn't have one from their home State first.

Actually, that doesn't seem to be correct. The source you cited in that post said nothing about not having a home-state license as the reason for revocations.
