Wood County
Scheduled a meeting with the Sheriff's office which took 10-15min. Got a call my license was ready in about 5-10 days (was a couple years ago). Had to change my address recently and stopping in took 2 min. The entire process in Wood County has been great. |

And they mailed it to me I didn't have to pick it up. |

Franklin County.
I would have gone to Delaware but their fees were a bit more and it was more of a drive so I gave Franklin (Columbus) a shot. It was the most well run government service I have ever seen / heard of. You do have to schedule an appointment but once you do, it's show up, fill out a small bit of paperwork, they take your photo, pay fees and you leave, it took all of 10 minutes. I received a call the very next morning that the permit was ready and I was able to pick it up right around 24 hours after I applied. |

Franklin seems to be the best county in the state to apply in, by a long shot. They had a 24-48hr turn around time for the last couple of years. Kudos to the Franklin Co. pistol permit team, you guys rock! Now if other counties would follow their example.... |

Delaware county here. I did my renewal paperwork yesterday around noon so we will see how long this takes. When I first got my license it took the entire 45 days because i had lived out of Ohio since I was 18 so that really adds a lot of time to the process.

Belmont county, 5 days. Applied 6/29, Got the call that it was ready 7/4. Capt. Everett, who is in charge of background checks said it is typically 48 hours for them, but he is in charge of coordinating the Sheriffs dept. for Jamboree in the Hills and has been busy working on that. Plus the holiday weekend didn't help. He said he has been getting checks back in a few hours and then it is a matter of getting the paperwork in to the Sheriff to sign.

Wood County - renewal
Appointment at 9:30 AM, got a call at 1:30 PM the same day to come pick up my permit. Elapsed time: 4 hours! 
The appointment setting process is really cool. You go on their website and it lists days and times that are available. Click one and show up. Thank you Deputy Loar! |

Allen County
Me and a shootin buddy took the class together in 2005 and he applied right away. He got his in 10 business days. I turned in paper work a week later and mine took 10 total days. That was when the sheriff was Beck (pro-gun 1911 type guy). |
