How long did you have to wait for your Chesco LTCF?

[XACEX]

Just curious, how long did you have to wait for your Chesco LTCF once you handed in the application? Anyone have any trouble with Chesco?

When I first applied, my LTCF did not arrive in six weeks. When I called the office to inquire when I could expect it the Deputy said it was mailed out three weeks earlier. They "had a second copy" ready and mailed it to me within a week of my calling. This was back in 2001.

My neighbor got his last year and it took about two-three weeks.

The Sherriffs office in Chester County are some nice folks.

I applied back in March and had it in about 3 weeks. The deputy who took the application was very helpful. The sheriff here is pro-2A -- and she's even NFA-friendly.

did they require "chester county" references?

[jsoc]

Yes, but they never contacted them.
I waited a year after I moved to apply. I moved from So Cal so my references were not valid and my family is in NEPA but they were family. I waited a year to get to know my neighbors then select three I could trust.

Some I just don't want knowing I own or carry a firearm.

I got mine in about 3 weeks and they did not contact any references. I'm trying to get my wife to apply now. They do contact your local PD to check you out- and my PD offered a free class on laws/ carry/ situations given by our police cheif. We had about 18 new CCW peeps that night! It was very informative!

3 weeks and a day or so. Non Citizen application with zero hassles and no contacting references.

Chesco references are preferred but I think any PA address will work. Take a money order for 46$.

11 days which included the holidays. I am an MP, not sure if that helped.

IRSPOW,
Are more of these classes scheduled? I know several who may be interested.

Took just over two weeks, not sure if references were contacted
