    Default Del Co Renewal

    Hey guys! I haven't been on in bit and thought I'd check in. I received my renewal notice in the mail right on time to renew two months early around 11/15. My LTCF expires early January. The letter was dated September though. I took it up to the county courthouse with $20 the day it arrived. It has been about three weeks so far. I was in L.A. for the last week and a half and forgot all about it but I'm sure it will take a few more weeks. It went smooth as far as renewing at the courthouse; no lines and quick processing. The lady who helped me was very nice. I'll be sure to follow-up when I get the letter back from the sheriff to give an idea how long the process took for those that are curious.

    I miss the forum and will try to be more active on it. Great source of information.

    Hey, Bogey, you're right! You must have ESP. I just checked my mail and the approval was in there.

    I wish I had your connections lol. Do you think they ever even call references? I don't think mine have ever been called.

    Meanwhile, in Indiana County, it was in and out in ten minutes, and that included giving me my replacement license.

    Waiting for approval? Not hardly.

    Yes, we do--Jerry Sanders. I was surprised Sheriff McFall-Hopper lost. Not for any other reason than incumbency tends to be hard to beat. She lives near me. But a lot of new people were elected last month. A wave election I guess they call it. I hope he is pro-2A. I'll give him the benefit until proven otherwise.

    As ohers have mentioned, I wonder why we can't move to a system where it's all done in one shot. Maybe because Del-Co is more populated than mid-state counties?

    When I got my (first) LTCF almost 5 years ago, I asked that question. The response from the woman behind the counter - who, incidentally, I've known my entire adult life - was (paraphrasing) "well, we do a better job", the suggestion being that they actually do an investigation beyond just PICS. At the time I was happy to just bow and scrape my way out the door with "my precious" in hand, so I didn't take it any further. When I go back to pick up my renewal in a few months I will seek a bit more clarity on what steps they actually take.
