There was a time it took that long, I also know folks that was less than 60 days from app to issue. It depends not only on staffing but DOJ, at time it was taking a year was when DOJ was taking that long for their returns from livescan Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

So I was reviewing the firearms policies of a lot of different corporations and had a question for the other CCW holders of Monterey County. So it is stated in the conditions printed on he back of our cards that we:
”Shall not possess weapon anywhere prohibited by law or sign.” So what is the general consensus? Many of the businesses listed do not have posted signs on the doors, but may have them posted in the customer service area (like Target does). The sign is possibly posted, but not accessible from the outside. If something goes down and you draw in a store like this, how do you think it would be handled? I haven’t looked at Target’s sign in any of the three MC Target stores, but I presume if it is an official policy, it will be posted. Since one can not be reasonably expected to search out the policies of every store, and make sure that it is not posted in some inconspicuous way, do you think this rule applies? My opinion is that if it isn’t posted on the door, I’m legal to carry, but if it is posted on the door, by Monterey rules, our permits would be invalid. This doesn’t mean I am going to stop carrying in these locations, but I will be extremely careful to not expose my weapon. Any LEOs want to weigh in? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

My CCW permit was finally signed, and i was able to pick it up today. How about other fellow calgunners waiting for their permit? Did you get any updates?
For fellow calgunners that already have theirs. How do you put your permit in your wallet? I thought it was a joke when someone here mentioned it was huge, but now i know that its true. Did you laminate it then folded it in half so it fits your wallet? Any suggestions? By the way, i patiently waited, and i did not call asking for updates at the MCSO in the last few weeks. I was surprised to get the call and email yesterday telling me its approved.

I will try that, but this is more like 2 cards together. The smallest i can get it trimmed is 3.5 inch by 4.5 inch.

Scan the front and save as a .jpg file or similar. Then paste it into Word or Photoshop (or whatever is available), shrink it to any size you want, and print it on regular paper and laminate it. I keep the original at home. Copy centers (like UPS) will do all this for you at a small cost if you need help. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

The CCW is a piece of paper. They recommended that I laminate it. So yes, make copies. And it is just a little too big for the wallet. Pretty sad, really. But I think it is the state’s fault rather than the Sheriff. Maybe someone else knows about that. I have non-resident permits from three states, and they are all nice plastic cards with photos.

The clerk that is processing the CCW applications now seems very nice and accomodating when i talked to her on the phone and when i picked up my permit. It does not hurt to ask after waiting a few more weeks.

Here's another question to fellow Monterey County residents. Do you know what is the type of duty ammo the MCSO or MPD use? I was wondering because when i looked around in the CCW discussion boards, there's a few advice that you should try to use same ammo as the local law enforcement uses. The reason is that in civil litigation in case you ever get involved in an incident, the lawyers cannot use the kind of ammo against you since you use the same as the police in your area.

Don’t modify except to make it “fit” better. Any trigger jobs that decrease the pull weight can get you in trouble according to my LEO friends. You can modify the trigger position on a gun to make it more ergonomic if you have shorter fingers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

CCW Permit Class
Just wanted to recommend Valley Firearms Training to anyone looking for a good CCW class. They offer an entry level course and advanced for those who already have a CCW. Dennis is very knowledable and they rent out Laguna Seca gun range to qualify which is a much better set up than going to Markley's in Watsonville.

I’m told they are all caught up. If you’re still waiting give them a call.
Estimated livescan to issue is inside a month I think. The longest holdup is awaiting responses from references or other agencies. Don’t be afraid to call if you’ve been waiting longer than a few weeks from when you did your livescan Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I see advice and comments here and even in other threads about not modifying CCW guns. In my case i replaced the plastic guide rod on my Ruger LC9 to a stainless steel one. Is that going to be an issue?

They only care if you change the performance of the gun. You should be ok if the mods are for ergonomics only. Its not that it's illegal, but an ADA in a criminal trial, or a plaintiff attorney in a civil case might use that as juice against you.

I hear you, but I think a lot more at stake with CCW permits. It’s not like it would be very difficult to forge one. I think it’s far more important to have more secure CCW cards. It’s just more evidence that our state really doesn’t care about anything except for money. They put on a show for the liberal masses, but when it comes down to it, all they really care about is the money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
