DENVER—Colorado residents who want a concealed carry permit would not be able to take any of their classes online, under a bill given initial approval in the state Senate.

The proposal clarifies that firearm training classes to get a concealed carry permit must all be taken in person. The bill passed the Senate Judiciary committee on a 3-2 party-line vote on Monday, with Republicans opposing.

Opponents of the bill say it places another burden on people who want permits. Supporters say one-hour online courses aren’t sufficient to merit the right to carry concealed weapons.

The bill still needs approval from the full Senate.
