San Diego CCW

Good for them, though "renewals" are really a whole different animal than new applications. Many of use who filed for new ones in the first couple days, are sitting on appointments scheduled for next March and April. GC is not the issue. I'll refrain from a "way to go" comment until we see how they deal with this increase in volume. I'm cautiously optimistic, but not happy yet.

I don’t renew for little while, hope there is no added BS by then. Wish I was renewing now.

I was contemplating self defense, then figured I'd just use what I used before. Like you said, I'm pretty sure they won't even consider what is written there.

The SD Sheriff's site says they do initial CCW interviews M-F, clearly that is not true since the only available interview dates are on Mondays... I emailed them and I was told new CCWs is only on Monday, Thurs/Fri for renewals and Tues/Wed for other licenses and other office business.

Per SDCGO, they have added in more days of the week, not that I can see

As of today, the next open apt is mid May 2023 and each day or so it moves out another week.

These delay tactics are by choice, my brother walked into his local office (Washington State), filled out the form, paid his fee, got he CCW in the mail 7-10 days

Washington's process is a 2 page form, a set of fingerprints, and $54. They run a background check and send you your permit. No class or shenanigans required. Washington, however, is truly "Shall Issue."

It is also my understand that some sheriffs in CA are issuing permits with only four requirements...Must be 21, must live in the county, pass the background check, and take the class. That's how it should be everywhere. But it's probably going to get worse before it gets better. Once the state updates the CCW requirements, there will likely be more requirements that sheriffs must adhere to.

New CCW licenses are only done on Mondays? LOL.

Filled out my renewal form today. I was a bit surprised to find the good cause "requirement" on the second page. I just used what I used for my initial. It's obviously generic as the form mentions picking up the permit, even though I believe SDC mails out the permit.

I just renewed in February. My course we just shy of 90 days out from my renewal. You just need to hold on to the certificate until 45 days before renewal. I would suggest doing it between 90-45 days so that you're ready to submit on day 45.

Perfect!

Thank you!
