[dani]

i wonder how many in reading carry without a licence, id love to see that number

oh boy. that'd be an interesting number.

i just wish as many good people would get the licence as we can......then when u put in the paper berks county has 50k or more people have a licence to carry it might make the criminals think twice

I got mine today, there were other citizens in front of me getting theirs. It took 2 weeks from the day I mailed it until the day I got it.

+1 for Berks County Sheriffs office.

Good work. Welcome to the Patriot Club

Nice to hear that so many Berks citizens are getting LTC permits.

+1. I'm definitely more aware of my surroundings when carrying. As Col. Jeff Cooper taught, one should always be a Condition Yellow when carrying a weapon:

You mean I can't shoot someone for cheating at cards down at the local saloon and then ride off to old Mexico?

I have felt naked ever since I got home from Iraq. I feel better now that I can carry. But you are 100% correct, thinking before reacting is key because each of our actions effect all of us.

Just sent in my application yesterday! I hope the turn around time is quick! I will let the fellow Berks county residents know.

Thanks,

Average turnaround time seems to be 2-3 weeks.

The approval came today in the mail 15 days from when it hit the mailbox. Now I just have to locate my SS card and make it into the Courthouse.
