Fastest time you got your CCW in?

[fox5]

I applied Wednesday(before Thanksgiving) at my local PD station and they called me a week later saying it was ready for pick up. Lisc. is an LTC class A no restrictions.

Too bad I'm at college and won't be home for 2 and a half weeks!

I have to say I am not to happy with the wait time for mine. Both my boyfriend and I have been waiting for 12 weeks so far. Sept 9th we applied and they sent it on the 11th. I called dec 2nd to see the status on it and it still is not in, she said to call on Friday. I am a little upset at this long wait, my sister got hers in like 6 weeks I think. I think its about time to move outta worcester!! LOL

When I was living in Needham I applied for my LTC. I got it in two weeks....no restrictions. My last renewal took some time, don't remember how long, but more than a month.

 

[Gonzo]

7 days.

You're trying to make people in Lowell hate you aren't you?

 

[06LemansC6]

7 days.

For MA or NH?

If you're talking about NH mine took about 4 hours. I dropped off the application in the morning and was called around noon and told I could come get it. My MA LTC took about 3 months.

Mine was a renewal, been renewing since 1990.

Red Town - Arrived at PD on a Saturday, permit was ready for pickup Thursday, but I actually didn't pick it up until the following Saturday.

LTC A Restrictions None.

 

[LT1MCSS]

MA 6 weeks I think
NH 6 weeks
ME 6 weeks and counting (in their defense it says 60 days right on the application, although they cashed the check weeks ago so I know its in progress)

I renewed in Wilmington (upgrading from FID) and it took 16 days. LTC-A ALP.

 

[Plural of Mongoose]

Four weeks on Nantucket for my LTC renewal and the kids FIDs took about three weeks. They might have had them sooner but didnt call me. I called them and they said the cards were in an envelope ready to pick up.

1st license in 2000 took 2 weeks. Renewal 4 years ago took 2 months.

 

[EddieCoyle]

I got mine in 6 days.

My town, I've been told they try to get you your license the same day. Sometimes within 30 minutes if the Chief is in the office.

I however do not currently plan to renew my license once it expires.

Why not? Who knows what will happen down the pike? Jack.

 

[BCEagleAce]

Exactly 4 weeks in Fitchburg, MA... Class A, ALP

Change in beliefs. I don't feel like asking permission to do what I have a Right to do. Just means more open carrying and P.R. work of why I'm OC'ing and not CC'ing.

 

[Mike-Mike]

My first one took about a week and a half

My LTC - A ALP took pretty much right on 6 weeks here in central MA

 

[TomD]

You folks have it made. Over here in New York on the Vermont, Mass. border, it took me three months, plus a hunter safety pistol course.....and I was a full time police officer with firearms training in basic school, and by the New York State Police and the F.B.I. .

She ended up getting an LTC after that debacle last month? Change of heart on guns then I see?

Damn, that's fast. My Ohio CHL took three business days.

 

[fox5]

What takes the state so long to issue a lisc.?

 

[jar]

obstructionism and/or incompetence. The holdup generally isn't the state. Call the CHSB and ask them what's up.
