So do you guys think that we should share with CRPA any unconstitutional emails that we receive?? Figured it might help us make even more of a case.

I was Livescanned earlier this year for work and asked if they counted and they said they were not sure

You will need to do a new live scan. Live scans cannot be shared between agencies/companies.

In the stack of papers they had, it didn't seem like they had my background check at all. They just had my application submission printed out and went over it in the interview going through every question.

Have you received any word to proceed with the livescan yet?

[ajb78]

What odd is that isn't the livescan the background check itself? I have a friend that cleared their livescan at SMC and it goes through all three types of background checks (CA, FBI, Firearms). I also don't understand why a recommendation needs to be written if the interview goes well and livescan passes.

Ahern and his cronies are doing their own dig for dirt on you, beyond what would come back on a Livescan.

I Worte asking where I am in the process since it's been more than 90 days since my application was filed and it's been several weeks since my interview and they already had my background check there during the interview and printed out, reminding them that they are very close to violating penal code section 26205 and I received this reply:



"We are conducting background investigation and then a recommendation will be written for you and the 152 applicants ahead of you and a lot more after you.

Please take note that the process will not end with the interview. There are a lot more steps. From hereon up to issuance, it will take one more year or so.

Your understanding will be appreciated."

interview questions, asked about the number of firearms (rifles/shotguns/pistols), storage, people in the household, fence, alarm, and general application questions.

Deputy was surprised I didn't submit photos of safe/storage as per the email blast. I had not received that email request. I showed her that I hadn't received it and after the interview, received an email asking for photos.

Does not sound like they paid much attention to the recent letters from CRPA as to following the requirements of Bruen

[StrikeV]

They should already have run a background check on you if you already had your interview. They had my background check printed out and asked me questions about it during my interview, including questions about traffic accidents I was in from another state (accident was not my fault, so not sure why that even came up in the interview).

Figured I'd chip in with my info too.

• Application submitted 6/24
• Interviewed 9/28
• Livescan TBD
• CCW Training TBD
• Psych Eval TBD
• ASCO Training/qual TBD
• CCW insurance TBD

I'm within the first 125 applicants. Was told there are ~1300 applications they're processing. Told the process could take 6 months - 1 year. Told they were unsure of what impact changing of the sheriff might have in the process.

Nothing new to add for the interview questions, asked about the number of firearms (rifles/shotguns/pistols), storage, people in the household, fence, alarm, and general application questions.

Deputy was surprised I didn't submit photos of safe/storage as per the email blast. I had not received that email request. I showed her that I hadn't received it and after the interview, received an email asking for photos.

I don't get why you have to wait a year after the background to get a 2-year permit. And are they adding more steps after the ruling they took 2 steps away of Good Cause and Good Moral Character.

Update on the process:

The next step is running a background check on me before the livescan. No idea how long that will take.

1: Application Submission - 6/24/2022
2: Interview - 9/27/2022
3: Livescan - TBD
4: CCW Training - TBD
5: Psych Eval - TBD
6: ASCO Training/Qual - TBD
7: CCW Issuance - TBD

That's disheartening. It seems apparent that ACSO's strategy is to delay the livescan as long as possible as a way of artificially structuring compliance with PC 26205. I mean, if they don't even let you take the livescan, they can just say that they haven't violated the law because the clock hasn't started with regard to the "whichever is later" language of 26205.

I can't imagine that this tactic would hold up in court post-Bruen... Hopefully the psych eval process isn't jammed up with their need to put their own deputies through it again.

That's what some are saying that applied on 6/28 I think they are going in batches and not in exact order. I applied the night of and some people had interviews before me that applied days later.


What's sad in comparison in the last 2 months I received my New Hampshire in 10 days and my Oregon in 12 days provided training and cleared background and mental health record check because it's clean and I'm an old man.

An applicant who applied 4 days after the ruling just had an interview and was told the process will take 6 more months to a year. That's unacceptable.

Are you sure this is right? I applied two days after the ruling and I was told that I won't even have an interview until late 2022. My assumption is that the process will take at least a year.
