In WV do you have to wait a certain amount of time after establishing residency before you can apply for your CCW permit?  Packing.org doesn't have any info on this.

I'm going to get my WV DL this Friday and it would be nice if I could stop by the Sheriff's office later that day since I'll have to be in Martinsburg anyway.

This is from the Hampshire County Sheriffs web site... I believe it would be the same state wide.   Doesn't have anything about minium time.
