AT DGM, no timed fire, no draw, no timed reloads, just reload at your own pace between stages. The course of fire was very low key. Mine was one on one, probably because I brought 3 guns. Others were taken two at a time.

I used John Groff for my Training. It ended up being one on one so it went pretty quick. I'd go to him again when I have to requal.

I shamelessly copied and posted several of your posts over at the tail end of http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s....php?t=1400940 to BURY the naysayers who kept pushing the idea that Gore hadn't really changed his restrictive policy, or that after winning re-election, he went back to being restrictive. While I can understand their paranoia, I'm glad (and assume even they're glad too) to be proven wrong.

They do that as a way to confirm your address.

I'd consider it a good sign.

I do. They take that into consideration?

Course of fire is: - 7yrds - 5 rnds regular two handed - 6yrds - 5 rnds weak hand dominant two handed - 5yrds - 5 rnds strong side one handed - 4yrds - 5 rnds weak side one handed - 3yrds - 5 rnds hip shooting They don't really grade your shooting, but ideally want everything in the 8 ring. Most folks don't practice hip shooting, so we got a lot of fliers when we did that. Also, if folks have a Glock, they'll have you try a couple contact shots with your thumb over the back of the slide. Hurts a little bit, but good to know you can do it. |

Interesting, Nachoman. I was there a few months ago, and mine was slightly different. We started at like 50 ft, and I think the point was not for the shooter to prove to the instructor he could be accurate at that distance, but for the instructor to prove to the shooter that he couldn't.
I don't understand the bit about thumb over the slide. Which thumb, placed where? For what purpose? Congrats on your permit! The more of us that are out there carrying responsibly, the better it is for all of us.

Yeah, at the beginning of class Kyle mentioned starting the shooting qual from afar since it forces proper concentration on the front sight. But when it came time to do it, we did what I mentioned above. The contact shooting drill was to simulate pushing the slide back into battery so that it'll fire, if you were pressing the gun against someone else (which might cause it to come out of battery and not fire). You fire, the slide doesn't cycle due to your thumb, then re-rack and fire again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC8T0gQu8kU |

If someone is on you like that, their body can push the slide out of battery, and your gun won't fire. So you put your thumb at the back of the slide and hold it forward, allowing the gun to fire, but preventing the slide from extracting and loading new round. Then you clear the jam as fast as you can and shoot a second round. |

I was aware of the out of battery problem, but I was not aware of the idea of practicing with your thumb over the rear of the slide. I guess I would have assumed that the slide would come back with enough force to break or at least dislocate your thumb. Worth it in a life or death situation but not a skill one would practice. Thanks for the education guys. Why were only the Glock owners asked to try this, what about a 1911 .45 +p? Is that too dangerous to practice?

It has to be striker fired, but not only for glocks.
Bizarrely, I barely felt anything when I did it with my glock 17. (Not that I'm tough, or something, I think it has to do with holding it so tight it cant move at all. If it moves at all, you'll feel it more, methinks. |

Yes, it's even more specific than that. You must take the class from somebody on the SDSO approved instructor list on their website, so even a class taken for another county won't work unless by chance they are also on the SDSO list.

Got my approval letter 49 days after my second interview. Seems like they are speeding things up after everything has been submitted, albeit the backed up schedule to get an initial interview still makes this a pretty lengthy process overall. The whole experience, although requiring a lot of work on my end with producing supporting documents and writing a good cause, was pretty painless overall.
I did receive a visit at my home to verify my residency. I wasn't there at the time and a call to verify I found their business card in my door was enough to satisfy them, no follow up visit happened. They did also contact my employer, mostly to verify my job title and if I was with good standing within the company, as part of my good cause was directly work related. I have already completed my course at DGM and found it to be a pleasant experience and would recommend it. As others have noted it will be a mixed group of CCW renewals, bodyguard renewals, and bodyguard initial applicants. I was the only new CCW applicant on the day of my course, but the instructor Kyle echoed they have been seeing more new approvals now than they have in years. The course of fire: - 7yrds - 5 rnds regular two handed - 6yrds - 5 rnds weak hand dominant two handed - 5yrds - 5 rnds strong side one handed - 4yrds - 5 rnds weak side one handed - 3yrds - 5 rnds hip shooting Was still accurate for anyone who wanted to practice before going in. Each gun you want on your CCW permit must be qualified with. I have my appointment set for next Tuesday to pick up my license, and will hopefully be qualifying a 3rd gun to put on my permit at DGM on Monday that I am picking up from "jail" in Orange County this weekend. It's been a busy month! |

Picked up LTC today...
Took training on Sunday @DGW. Kyle & Logan were great... got a discount coupon for ACLND membership (Kyle knows Marty Hayes). No problems on the qualifying shoot.
Picked up my LTC today. Bernardo was my clerk... friendly guy, knows his stuff. He said that CCW first interviews are currently being scheduled in July 2019! Wow! Bill Gore should hire more staff to meet the demand. Now, should I fold this laminated piece of paper so it fits behind my driver's license? |

I trimmed my plastic as much as possible without causing the lamination to fail and found a bi-fold wallet with a very slightly larger compartment that would just barely hold it.
Congrats on joining our ranks

Got my CCW about two weeks ago in SD (I live in North County - Vista) - process was straightforward/ Apply, submit background, pay fees, approval, test and issuance. Bernardo was the clerk - good dude and knows his stuff and I have been carrying everywhere that I can. Strange feeling to know that you may be the only armed person at that location.

Isn't there a lawsuit out there about process wait times? They aren't allowed to have an unlimited wait time for an appointment right?

Based on what SDCGO posts about how they approached this process, I think they've formed a good working relationship with Sheriff Gore's office so I'm not a sure a lawsuit is the best way to enact change in this area. SDCGO has mentioned that reducing the wait time and making it more efficient on the Sheriff's side is their next goal. And when i went in for my final appointment, Bernardo from the Sheriff's department had mentioned that they were trying to make their process more streamlined. Obviously their process is still geared towards the previously really low number of applicants, given it's a government org changing a process usually takes a long time.

It's been a while since anybody posted on this aspect. Are we seeing any denials for good cause?
