how much should the CCW firearms training be costing approximately? just ballpark so I know not to get ripped off

My training at Route 66 Shooting Sports Park out in San Bernadino was $200 with 3 firearms. They didn't charge extra for having more than 1 firearm, but other places do. Some people in my class only had 1 firearm for their permit, but it's always better to have more than 1 in case your gun breaks or if you get into a shooting, your gun could be held as evidence for as long as 2 years. You can't update your list of firearms until your 2 year renewal period.

NEWBIES - WEBINAR on HOW to APPLY on SUN AUG 7, 9AM: If you're totally new to the CCW process, whether you live in an area serviced by LASD, or you don't and missed the Aug. 1 deadline to apply with LASD, join my webinar for next steps.

I've had 30+ folks on the last 2 webinars, helping them send their applications in before Aug. 1 because all of us in the training industry saw it coming.

Now I'm trying to help as many folks navigate these constantly changing waters and answer the many common questions here too. Hit my signature link to register or DM me with any questions.

EFFECTIVE AUGUST 1, 2022

The LASD will only accept first-time CCW applications from those who reside within our contract cities or unincorporated communities and encourage applicants residing in a municipality other than those served by the LASD to contact their local police chief and apply for a CCW license.

All first-time CCW applications submitted, received, or postmarked before the indicated date; the LASD will accept and continue to process.

My local pd will be accepting and processing ccw application. I spoke to the Captain and he said he is getting policy and prosedure in place for the applications and will be ready by the end of this month.

I did mail my app back in june 2022 to LASD. But more than likely a year wait.

Should I reapply to my local pd? Process might be faster since its just for the resident of my city.

Any thoughts? Tips

Newbie here, howdy. My timeline is right in line with others

[guymenton]

Can you share what city you live in, so we can start to see which PDs are being proactive vs ones dragging their feet?

Absolutely apply with your local PD, since they may move much quicker with the lighter application load than LASD.

For those of us already issued, hopefully LASD will handle our renewals as they come due in 2023. Renewal is supposed to be both faster and less expensive.

Sheriff AV is live on Facebook/Instagram, looks like the feed has issues.

Did not talk about CCW, live stream issues did not allow for comments.

Had my live scan done today... now the waiting game

[LA123]

Hey all,

I apologize for the basic question but I am a bit confused about the live scan process. I had it done yesterday and I searched my live scan on the DOJ today and it says:

CA Completed 08/02/2022 - Response will be sent after Firearms is completed
FBI Completed 08/02/2022 - Response will be sent after Firearms is completed
Firearms In progress.

Does this seem fast or is it the Firearms that takes 90 days?

Thank you

90+ days is what the Firearms is taking. Demand or slow walking them, take your pick on the reason why it is taking so long.
