Are they turning people away or are they taking everyone that comes in?"The problem with quotes found on the Internet is you have no way of confirming their authenticity."

Nobody turned away yet, think they,re up to 18 and think I heard him say they're going up to 20.Comment

I lost track, it was #20 that showed up jost before 9:00. Nobody else has shown up yet. Averaging 8-9 minutes per person going upstairs.Comment

Just got home from turning mine in. Took all of 5 minutes once I got upstairs. Amber told me that she will try to get permits sent out sooner but it may take up to ...

Two weeks indeed...
I applied with the intention of having four firearms listed. All four were listed in the initial application; the fourth listed on a separate attachment. Amber did not say anything, the interviewing detective stated that they allow up to four firearms, approved with no indication that four firearms were not good to go. So I qualified with four firearms.
Amber related to me that it's SCSD's policy to allow up to three.
Contrary to what I've stated before, Sacramento only accepts three on the permit.Comment

Yeah, Amber talked to me about the 3 weapon limit also and she thought I had 4 but I had been re-qualified with a second barrel for one of my weapons (both calibers will be listed on the permit for the same weapon).
I asked her briefly about the renewal process. Because of the long waits, they will probably go to an appointment system for everyone completing their new CCW paperwork and renewals so that people can avoid the lengthy waits.Comment

It sounds like a lot of people are just showing up on Tuesdays on a first come-first served basis.
I was under the impression that the process was appointment only?Comment

Appointments are required to drop off the app in the beginning of the process but the final step where you turn in your training cert. and sign papers is first come first served. Tuesdays between 9-11.
I got there at 0630 and sat in my car with the door in view until someone got in line. There was no way I was going to get turned away today.Comment

My reference is to the growing number of "keyboard experts" who claim their way is the only way and your less of a man if you don't follow their way. Which is what such statements as "you shouldn't have a CCW, unless you carry chambered" are.... Statements like that are absolutely absurd, because sadly someone who is uncomfortable with the idea or has little to no experience will follow suit, because they "READ IT ONLINE" and end up shooting themselves. These person(s) are no less important then you or I and deserve the right to self defense, but shouldn't be faced with macho man comments about how the only way to carry is this or that way.... There is only one way to carry, the legal way that is comfortable to you. Trying to pressure inexperienced or poorly trained people into doing things they aren't comfortable with will result in accidents... The more accidents CCW holders have will only equal more fuel and support for the liberals to fight against our progress.
What a surprise too, because we've already had one CCW holder related accident near Auburn, with a CCW holders friend shooting themselves.
If you want to keep your CCW you should be preaching safety, not combat readiness for the mean streets of.... Elk Grove... We're not in Iraq or Afghanistan and unless you aren't really carrying concealed then you aren't anymore of a target then you were a couple of weeks or months ago when you didn't have a CCW. In fact if you have delusions of some mass fire fight against hordes of gang members and child rapists who ambush you in the parking lot of Walmart, I fear you probably shouldn't have a CCW.
Use common sense, if you do not feel comfortable carrying a chambered weapon then do not carry a chambered weapon. As a CCW holder you aren't a hero, you aren't there to engage every single enemy target and you aren't going to be ambushed by Johnny Jihad the second you exit the safety of your home.
