To get or not to get a ccw permit?

[Leadfoot]

Don't get no permit. OC'ing in a shoulder holster is the ONLY way to carry.

Hey don't knock it, I've done this. Hawaiian shirt included.

You thought I was joking?

What would be different?

I don't think we are on the same page.

If he/she is doing everything but getting the certificate, it's the same class and material as the people taking it for "credit."

My error. I see what you're saying. I was, indeed on a different page ................ I thought you were saying that all CHP classes are the same.

CCW (course fee)..........................$ 75.00

Ammo 100 rounds practice.............$ 00.00 I handload and cast so cost was minimal

City Marshall’s Office (finger prints)$ 00.00
Life long friends did it for free, Some charge $10.00

Walgreen’s (Pass Port Pictures).......$ 10.86

Local Notary fee............................$ 20.00


USPS ($125 money order total)..$126.15
(mail out cost).................$ 1.50

Total cost ......................................$233.51

Still waiting for the state to approve and mail back...

But like others have said working within the law is much better that working outside of it! National Reciprocity, would be very nice, if it ever makes it all the way thru the process. After all we are law abiding citizens and not subjects yet!

I hope your prints make the cut.

I may be a little slow, but not that much!

Sorry for the confusion.

I would recommend the permit. As with anything else I guess it takes time to get adjusted to carrying and I can tell you I have probably spent too money much trying to get the right gun and holster but I think I have finally figured it out. I don't carry to be cool or tough, but todays society seems to require personal protection. I really didn't think the cost was outrageous and both my wife and I actually enjoyed the training. I think I would rather open carry but why bring that attention on myself?
