What is the actual shooting portion of the LA CCW test?
I've been looking all over the internet and I can't find the same course of fire for any of the CCW qualification courses. The videos or articles that I've found all have different courses of fire. Some have you shooting from three distances (15 feet, 7 feet, and 3 feet). Some have you shoot from just two distances. Some are timed tests, and some are just accuracy with no time limit. Some say 5 shots, some 6. Haha.
Can any of you tell me what exactly you had to do for the shooting portion of your CCW exam? I can't find that info for Los Angeles anywhere. Thank you! jerdog3 |

LA county CCW?
Seriously, the reason you can't find this information is because there are so few people who actually have a CCW in LA County. The topic of getting a CCW in LA County has been beat to death on this forum. Use the search function and you will find out. People generally recommend moving to a different county if you want a CCW because it isn't going to happen in LA County.

Oh I'm quite sure the protected classes can have them. Probably no qual required. |

Even then doubtful. Truly elite persons don't bother carrying guns, getting in harm's way. They have staff of around the clock security personnel.

If you've had almost any sort of pro training the shooting portion of the LA CCW is the least of your worries.
Go for it and good luck. To answer your question - "Can any of you tell me what exactly you had to do for the shooting portion of your CCW exam?" Riverside 18 rounds fired; 6 at 15 yards, 6 at 10, 6 at 7. 70 percent on target. No time limit

To everyone else, Hahahahaha! Man you guys are funny. Haha! At first I was getting annoyed that nobody was answering my question and telling me to stop trying, but every time I read another answer, I started smiling, then chuckling, and then laughing! If Jim didn't answer my question, I'd have fallen out of my chair! Haha Oh man! So it's true what they say. Only cops and criminals get to carry guns in Los Angeles. Having said that, I'd still like to try and I'd also like to hear what you did on your shooting qualification. Who knows, you may help me start something here. An avalanche starts with a single stone. I'm not sure that's actually true, or an actual saying, but lets stay positive guys. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! jerdog3 |

This is the thread to ask your LA Co CCW application questions and where to find out the latest intel re the sheriff’s claim to be issuing more CCWs. Read the last 2 or 3 pages of posts. http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=352761 Last edited by Paladin; 09-10-2020 at 11:37 AM.. |

I think that this is a common attitude that contributes to the reason that there's no issue of permits. Forget about the political stance of the Sheriff. Think about demand. If everyone says "eff it, why bother" then there's no applications. No applications shows there's no interest and therefore the Sheriff thinks no one cares about CCW. When they look at the stats, if there are any, maybe it shows that CCW permit applications are so little the County people don't need to consider change. Not voicing means no change to the current standing. I don't know how it all works, but that's my logic and my beliefs. Sitting around and cracking sarcasm at people trying isn't going to get anything done. I just figure why not try.
Good on the OP @jerdog3 for applying and trying. I applied knowing that I would get denied. But I wanted to be someone that voiced interest rather than sitting back and waiting for something to happen.

I still don't understand this logic though, an average person has zero chance of getting CCW in LA but applies anyway; is it just to get on the denied party stats?
I think the better approach would be to try to elect Sheriff that is pro CCW. Just my $.02

I totally agree. If everyone who wanted one applied, and had actual good cause, we can make a case that we are having our rights denied us. But if only 500 out of 10,000,000 apply, it's not that bid of a problem in their eyes I guess. |

That's the rub. The sheriff determines what he deems "good cause." It's very subjective, not objective at all.

If Shakespeare or Voltaire were to conjure a good cause would it suffice? If you hired a think tank to propose one for you, you'd still get denied. A good cause is nothing more than tangible matter to deny. The reality is the city has pre-determined that it shall not give out CCWs. Don't take the above statement as an absolute. There will always be a diplomat or a temporary issue to a consulate official. I am describing the ordinary. |

One of the questions on the CCW application is if you've ever been rejected for a CCW. I suspect answering in the affirmative is a negative point. Given that LA County won't issue to you anyway, I would think you would be better off not applying until you move to a better county.

1. Quint is one of the single greatest characters in move history. Good job on your choice of avatars. 2. I look at getting denied a CCW in Los Angeles like losing a fight to Mike Tyson. Would you really hold that against a person? I'm guessing any place I might move to, and unless I win the lottery I ain't moving, will recognize that. jerdog3 |

OP as opposed to giving the government any more of my money than I absolutely have to, I think giving $10 to the first homeless person you see will be just as effective in your quest. Of course the big difference is you'll at least have some idea where your money went. |

Let's address the "white elephant" in the room. You will need to show that you are a BLM, ANTIFA, and Greenpeace supporter as a life long ambition. You love Hollywood, and have dedicated your life to Barbara Boxer, Barbara Streisand, Diane Feinstein, Taylor Swift, and are an avid practicing member of the AME Church. Heck you've even attended Al Sharpton's daughter's wedding and met her kids. Now you are Golden and they will hand deliver your CCW to your residence with 1,000 rounds of ammunition.
There, I've given you and the rest of Los Angeles the answer in how to achieve not only a handgun CCW but approval for automatic weapon possession. Just say thank you. Other than all of the above, you are hosed brother. |

I'm sure you'd love the evidence. It'll probably arrive in a one of those Disney boxes, you know, where you open it up and like a lantern the whole room glows at once. There are people who get treated fluffy and special for being who they are and in exchange of what we need. Sometimes, even, our country sends people off to other countries expecting the same treatment. Even the State Department throws light on it as Categories of Persons Entitled to Privileges and Immunities. Such people are given personal inviolability. They don't make the news, you don't get evidence of what they can do, and Special Bilateral Agreements allow this to happen. Please don't start playing your semantics. I never circled around "CCWs are issued to foreign nationals by the sheriff in LA county". Last edited by HecklerNKoch; 09-15-2020 at 6:45 PM.. |

I guess you must have meant U.S. citizens who are diplomats or consulate officials in LA county when you said this "There will always be a diplomat or a temporary issue to a consulate official." We are talking about CCWs in LA county still right? |

The point was the guy above was stuck on the idea of "if we can crack the golden code of the good clause then we're in!" My point was "they" [whomever, Mother Mary...]needs [something] to be able to deny you. If it's not your first born, it's your good clause, because they won't be denying you on the basis of the color of your eyes. Then I went on to say, for guys like you, don't read into this too far, this is for the ordinary citizen wanting to carry in Los Angeles, that there will always be an exception, a royal, a diplomat, a Vladimir, a person whose blood is more red than mine, a freakin' Saudi prince whose detail will walk around that day as he shops on Rodeo drive armed to protect his royal muffin. |

Not that I'm overly concerned about failing at any of the distances, but I wonder what would happen if you passed with two guns, and failed with the third? Do you just get the license for 2, or do you have to retake the entire test? |
