Hello everyone, I’ve got a question and I’m hoping I can get some clarification.
I got my CCW a few months back and one of the firearms I have listed on my permit is a CA model shield that I purchased via PPT from a retired LEO. It’s completely stock with one exception... he had it sent to Robar for the whole NP3 treatment. When I purchased it I didn’t see it as a problem and my course instructed didn’t bat an eye as he looked it over and approved it, but now I’m reading that it could possibly get me into some hot water with the department as it could be seen as unapproved modification. Is this something I should be worried about? Am I better off selling it and buying a new from the factory gun? I’ve switched over to one of my other listed guns for the time being but I really do prefer the shield so I’m hoping I can get this figured out. Thank you for your time!
The truth is, there is probably a zero percent chance that the OCSD would ever find out about the coating on your gun. Obviously whomever you used to qualify the weapon didn't notice it? Not like you chromed a Glock.Personally, I don't want to be carrying a weapon in violation of OCSD policy for various reasons.
And yeah I think this is a silly rule, but being petulant about it does me no good. I'm just thankful that I can get a permit in California, something for the vast majority of my life I never thought would never happen."The right to keep and bear arms . . . is not the only constitutional right that has controversial public safety implications. -- Justice Alito, McDonald v.

I heard that the number of permits in OC is actually down below 20,000, even if they continue to issue roughly 500 permits per month.
It seems many elect not to renew, and one of the main reasons is because a good number of permit holders are apparently leaving the state, at least for 51% of the time, if not permanently.iTrader under old CalGunsComment

I'm one that did not renew. My permit was for carrying a firearm in my topbox on the adventure motorcycle. Bike is sold, have quit riding, too old and my back is whack. Have not carried a weapon in public in the four years I had my permit, and now retiring and building a home out of state.
When I get where I'm going maybe I'll get one there.
Enjoyed the process and the experience. And still enjoy shooting - have all my life.1911 ShooterComment

Hello All,
Wisdom is needed for a renewal. Couple of questions.
1. Do I scan and resubmit the CA DOJ "Bureau of Firearms Initial & Renewal Application” or is it part of the online portion you fill out online now? Or is it not needed for renewal?
2. Other than the utility bills, CDL and Good Cause, is there anything I would need to scan and submit?
When I appiled originally everything was submitted in paper form. I'm just trying to see what I need or don't need this timeComment

Picked up my permit today, and noted all of the dates along the way, so I can y'all an idea of timeline:
Applied: 6/7
Interviewed/Conditional Approval/Submit LiveScan: 6/11
Live Scan Approval: 6/20
Training & Certificate Submittal: 6/23
(certificate & serial no errors needed correction)
Investigator Approval & Submittal for Final Approval: 6/25
Conditional Final Approval + Error Correction: 8/28
(MORE certificate & serial no errors needed correction)
Final Approval & Pick Up: 9/4
AZ & UT Mailed: 7/2
AZ Received: 7/13
UT Received: 8/12
FL Mailed: 9/4
FL Received: 10/1
Looks like OCSD is running about 90 days at the moment, and I was pleasantly surprised at how on-the-ball AZ, FL, & UT were.Treat every stressful situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it, play with it, or hump it ...
PISS ON IT, and walk away.Comment

Even an amendment to a current permit requires one to go through the application form online, again, though there are a couple fields where you enter reference numbers from your existing permit to connect the current application with what you submitted previously. I can't see why a renewal would be any different.iTrader under old CalGunsComment

Since I posted a couple question about my renewal I though I'd post the timeline since I received it in time to beat Murphy to the punch (today is the old one's expiration BTW).
6/11 - applied for renewal and provided all documentation except the training certificate
6/24 - provided training certificate
8/20 - approved
8/30 - picked up new permit (because I had a lot of stuff going on, but I could have got it on the 20th if I could have got over there.)Comment
