Firearms division now closed Saturday?

[Montanya]

Just saw the message on the Allegheny County Sheriff Site..now they aren't open at all on Saturday!

"PLEASE NOTE: Effective IMMEDIATELY, the Allegheny County Sheriff's Office Firearms Division will no longer be open on Saturday. Please see the hours listed to the right for days and times of operation. "

it says that on the yellow card too.. i wouldn't be surprised if the reasoning behind that is to try and inconvenience people to the point they cant get a permit...

Yeah I see that now, I didn't even notice it on the card, went out to check something else and hit the firearms division site and saw that it was closed on saturday.. I think they were open some stupid thing like 8am - noon anyway on saturday, but still made it cheaper to come in and park on the weekend, and a much better chance to find the 1hr parking spots behind the courthouse open...good luck finding one of them during the week. But alas I am going down on Monday AM to get mine and then lobby to try and get some stuff changed hopefully before it needs to be renewed

Edit: Quick post again XD just noticed you have 666 posts

Yep, this is SOP in Franklin County too. Dropped off my application on a day off, and left work an hour early to go pick up my LTCF when I was approved.

I doubt the people at that office will even be bothered to give you any info. More likely they will just hand you one of the pamphlets that are in the basket by the door that has that info in it.
