Same Day LTC Permits in Berks!

[ChamberedRound]

Anyone else see this? Emphasis by me; are they saying they'll issue same-day LTC permits? Or is this just for Sportman's Permits?

The Berks County sheriff's department will issue Pennsylvania gun permits at satellite locations in the county starting Monday in Birdsboro.

The satellite offices will be manned on the third week of each month from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in five locations.

•Third Monday: Birdsboro Borough Hall, 200 E. Main St.

•Third Tuesday: Hamburg Borough Hall, 61 N. Fourth St.

•Third Wednesday: Wernersville Borough Hall, 100 N. Reber St.

•Third Thursday: Kutztown Borough Hall, 45 Railroad St.

•Third Friday: Colebrookdale Township Municipal Building, 765 W. Philadelphia Ave.

Applicants for the licenses must present a Pennsylvania driver's license or Pennsylvania photo identification card and pay $25, cash or check.

A computer background check will be performed immediately. Upon successful completion of the check, the license will be issued.

Looks like it is LTCFs. Sheriff's website.

BTW, congrats to this sheriff, Eric J. Weaknecht...he "gets" it. Easy, fast, convenient and following the law for issuing, with no "extra requirements". Link to his instructions for a LTCF...all looks good and he doesn't call it a "permit" either!

Just took a look at the website... NICE!!! So now you now MUST apply in person, but that's a small sacrifice to make given:

- He got rid of the references requirement
- He'll issue same-day if you pass PICS

All in all, this is great news for Berks county residents and makes me very happy that I voted for Sheriff Weaknecht.

I second that wholeheartedly!

Now only if all PA sheriffs would follow his lead....

Here in Fayette Co., Sheriff Brownfield is cool about issuing too, with no hassles.

I saw a display by a Berks County dealer at a recent show but lost the contact info. It was something like "C&D" and was in the northern country. Thanks.

Weaknecht. Strong victory for Pro2A and proper respect of civil liberties and rights. Soon to be devastating loss for the cocaine traffic in Reading.
