Let's also say "Granny" was a WAC during the Korean War. All she needs for a CCL is her DD214, fingerprinting, and pay about $100. No training or test or shooting skill required at all for a veteran even though military service might have been 70 years ago.



Anyhow, enjoy packing your gun in legal places.

The granny I know is far younger than 80, very skilled with a pistol, and I would not want to hack her off. She is very aware of her surroundings. And has excellent reflexes. I think you may be underestimating the skills of certain Villagers.
