Just curious if any of our HTF crew recalls what the wait time was for the FL non-resident permits.

Many thanks....

Mine was about 2 months and my friend just got his in about 5 weeks.
9/2/2008 10:36:52 AM EDT
[#2]
My friend and I applied for our FL CCW permits at the same time.  His application took 14 days and mine took 90 days.  Go figure.

My took 2 months, a most to the day.

Once you get the Florida you can use to get your Connecticut CCW.

Question about the training. Would a simple proof of a hunting license be good enough? I mean you did have to take a test and saftey course and all that to get it.

A hunting Lic, NRA Basic Pistol or a DD214 will do the trick!!

Just for the record, the license does NOT limit you to a firearm.  It clearly states at the top "Concealed Weapon or Firearm License"

So knives, brass knuckles, slingshots, etc. would be permissible under this license.

Guys:

Possible sticky here. I have listed   a few States that will provide New York and New Jersey  residents with a CCW. You will need to obtain either  a Florida or New Hampshire  first. Upon receiving either permit you can use  that permit  to piggy-back  for the rest.

In my opinion  because of our geographical location,  a combination of the Florida, Connecticut and New Hampshire would give  us the widest coverage

Enjoy

Info for Maine CCW

www.maine.gov/dps/msp/licenses/weapons_permits.html


Info for New Hampshire  CCW.

Those living in anti-gun jurisdictions where carry permits are difficult or impossible to obtain could not qualify for New Hampshire’s non-resident license simply because of where they happened to live. Under the amended rule (Saf-C 2102.03), a valid carry license from any state will qualify an applicant for the New Hampshire non-resident license. Those who hold non-resident permits from "shall-issue" states like Florida will now be eligible for the New Hampshire non-resident license.
Residents of the following jurisdictions will be most notably affected: California, Washington, D.C., Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York City, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin.
The rule was amended October 14, 2004 largely due to the efforts of NRA state affiliate Gun Owners of New Hampshire, its president State Rep. Elbert Bicknell, its board member Sam Cohen, NRA board member Scott Bach, and gun rights attorney Evan Nappen.

You must have a either a resident CCW from your home state or a non-resident CCW from another state in order to get a non-resident CCW from NH. The only exception is if you are a resident of VT.

Just something to remember guys.  If you are from New Jersey, you cannot get a
PA CCW.  PA requires that you have a CCW permit from your home state before they will issue a CCW to a non-resident.

No problem at all, just go out and get your NJ CCW first.   Well, it was nice to dream ...

I had a squirrel pull a box-cutter on me in Central Park after a Laser Show (maybe it was the micro-dots) and have you every seen Monty Python's The Holy Grail???...nuff said about rabbits.

FWIW...a 380 has a little less energy then a 38. With a CTC laser and a fast trigger, a few to the base of the throat will render any "low threat" to a no threat real fast.

I called FL today and actually spoke to a good, professional woman about expediting mine. I mailed mine in about 10 days ago and it just hit the system today. I might try to assist in one of the hurricane areas and they want you to have a CCW permit which I told her. She was an Army veteran and thanked me for my time in the CG and thought it was nice that I wanted to help out in the current problem zones and the future ones from the storms off the coast coming in. She found a minor glitch in mine and gave me some advice to expedite it by sending in additional info to a fax number and then told me to keep my fingers crossed.  She also said the minimum time is three weeks, avergage if you are LUCKY is 45 days and more then half are waiting upwards of 90 days. There it is from the source. Good luck peeps.

My glitch is 1 in a million. I am adopted and was born in Canada and came south when I was 8 days old via a pre-arranged deal from some extended family. My parents who raised me are from the US, which makes me a US citizen. This has given me years of grief between going into the service, getting my first drivers license, first Passport, you name it. So on this go around, I needed to send in a copy of my Passport to show that I am a US citizen.

So if you were born on a military base say in Germany, Japan, Canada, UK, wherever, send them a copy of your Passport to prove your citizenship.

And no, I'm not of French desent.
