I have one if four states and have a license in each to purchase weapons without a check. That sure saves alot of hassle when you go to buy guns.

Here in GA, the weapons permit keeps you from having to go through the background check again. I have one and also a C&R FFL.

18 years ago in NY:
-Mandatory safety course, with a fee
-Paperwork, finger prints, 3 references and a fee
-State police do a reference check
-FBI does a background check
-County judge must approve
It took 6 months to get the NY permit and it's not valid in NY City. It's good for life as long as you don't leave the state. If you change counties you need to re-register and fight to keep the concealed option. I understand a license to carry concealed is much harder to get today.

For MikeinPA:
What's the process for getting one?
Go to your local PD for the forms. They may direct you to the Sheriff's office.
You'll need two County residents as character references. . There's lines on the forms for them to sign.
The form also has a place to give your reason for getting the permit...Protection is a valid reason.
Return the forms to the PD or Sheriff (in York County, it's the Sheriff).
There'll be a background check...takes about two weeks.
Then, you go back to the Sheriff/PD for a photo ID and you can then carry any gun (concealed only...no open carry in PA).
The permit cost $20 or $21 for five years.
PA is a "shall issue" state. There is no discretion on the Sheriff's part...as long as you pass the background check, they have to issue the permit, so don't let anyone give you a hassle.
BTW, one of the Democratic runners for govenor is Ed Rendell, the former mayor of Philadelphia. He is vehemently anti-2nd Amendment Rights....vehemently! He's also one of the architects of the strategy to sue gun makers out of business.
Remember this when you vote!
The attached pic is a Kahr MK9, a 9mm double action only pistol. I normally carry this gun, a Taurus 85 Ultralite .38 Spl revolver or a Glock 19 (my favorite, but not the easiest to conceal considering how I dress).
I've had my permit for ten years or so.

RoyJackson, what is your opinion of Taurus? I have been looking at the new CIA model, but haven't found one in titanium yet. It appears that I can get titanium from Taurus for about the same price as the normal airweight S&W (plus Taurus hasn't cut any deals with the devil /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif).
