    Default got to love that convenient permit renew

    yeah! that sucks, got my notice so i went down and got the picture taken,i don't remember having to go back twice. but that was a while ago. nice convenient hours of operation they have, with a side of rape for parking. now i know which side of the fence they stand on. i guess making it a pain in the ass to renew is there way of gun control. there just another worthless government agency. that felt better.

    ... and all for a permit you shouldn't need.

    Man, I almost feel guilty. I walk in the Sheriff's Office, they say "Hi" with a big warm smile and the Deputy sees I am there for a renewal and says "I can do that while you wait". Does the PICS and hands it off to a secretary to type up. The most unpleasant exchange was when the one secretary looked at him and said "I am in the middle of something" to the Deputy. Another secretary chimed in "I can do it over here". And a "Thank you, see you in five years" when I leave. I actually see them much more frequently, but the customer service is a great touch! I really love Lycoming County. I moved here from Phila just for reasons as such.

    Be safe.

    Westmoreland Cty doesn't even mandate the photo ID card! You can do your entire application or renewal through the mail! Photo is optional!

    I know I loved getting my permit in "the sticks" of Lycoming county that way....I hope Snyder county goes as smoothly...but I don't have any reason to think it won't. Still the sticks.

    Nice and smooth in Lackawanna for me. In and out in ten minutes. It took longer to take all the crap out of my pockets at the metal detector than for the permit process.

    Last renewal process took a bit longer as I had to go to the sheriff's office in person to get my picture taken for the new plastic LTCF. Of all things there was one person ahead of me that was filling out their initial application and needed direction to do it. the deputy was helpful and cheerful in that regard. I handed mine in already filled out. They had mailed me one. by the time my picture was done they typed all information into the computer and printed my plastic permit. I got a nice thank you and goodbye.
