Just sent in my application for a Non Res permit. Have all of NE except Ct and RI; have the Utah as well.
Took a Ct Concealed Carry class here in MA that provided all the docs and requirements. Was advised by class instructor to put in the fact I was "arrested" back in 1983 for Minor in Possession of alcohol on the DPS-799-C page 3 question ; "Have you ever been arrested" question.
Bunch of us were taken in (was 17 and drink age was 18 then but WTF) while at Drive-in in Mass having a good time with friends and we got a little loud so local police came by and scooped us up. No big deal.
Went to the arraignment and local ADA dropped/ dismissed charges for court costs and that was that. Piad my cash to the .Gov and left. I had a clean record and my recruiter had also showed up and told them I was leaving in 3 weeks for Basic on a 4 year enlistment which I was and it ended up being a full 20 years in the end. All was good and no more issue.
I sent in the app and also provided a copy of my MA CORI on me showing all facts; charges dismissed for Paid CC and that was it-closed.
I struggled with sending it in but finally did since when I applied for my MA resident CC permit and told my CoP about it the first time many years ago, he laughed and said he "didn't care about that crap" and has issued and reissued me several times now.
I am just concerned I might have to deal with " Have you ever been denied a permit" question when I a renewing my various other permits going forward....
Question for the Ct experts; Am I likely to be denied?
Comments??
