Re: Guns & Gadgets Trumpets GOA Victory in Philadelphia (Video)
Don't get me wrong; I think it's great that GOA won a victory over the PPD LTCF unit.
However, three threads in five days on the same subject in the same sub-forum is a bit much on the duplication.
All three threads are merged.

Re: Victory in Philadelphia: Gun Permit Unit Will Accept Applications via Email
We need this relief in Chester and Delaware Counties too.
I made an appointment with Chester County in late October, they gave me a June 1 date.

Re: Victory in Philadelphia: Gun Permit Unit Will Accept Applications via Email
Bumping this thread to note that Chester and Delaware Counties are still requiring an appointment to drop off LTCF applications.
In Chester County if requesting an appointment today 2/4/2021, the first available appointment slot is 10/26/2021 or 38 weeks.
The rest of the courthouse is open, with simple temperature checks at the door and limits on the # of people allowed in the elevators. Sheriff's office is open for other business, with monthly in-person sheriff's sales open to the public.

Re: Victory in Philadelphia: Gun Permit Unit Will Accept Applications via Email
I foolishly let mine expire. It was expired for too long so I wasn’t granted the automatic extension.
This appointment is required to simply drop off the application. This isn’t an interview or background check or any of that, just to drop off the form and your application fee. It is an obvious tactic to evade the 45 day timeframe required by the legislature by adding more than 6 months leadtime before the process can start.
To make matters worse, I now know that I need to be out of town the week of my June 1 appointment (which was first date I could get last Oct), so I called to see if I could reschedule. They said I had to use the online scheduling tool to do that, and the online tool doesn’t give any special consideration if you already had an appointment. The first available appointment it gave me to reschedule into was Oct 28th.
The online tool is scheduling 15 min appointments. These are for new LTCF applications only... not renewals, and not for any other service at the Sheriff’s office. There is no way that there are that many people in Chester County waiting for new carry permits. If that were true the Sheriffs election would have gone a different way.

Re: Victory in Philadelphia: Gun Permit Unit Will Accept Applications via Email
You may be surprised at how many people are seeking carry permits. I was the lawyer who filed the suit against the City of Philadelphia, and while I was preparing that case I was surprised by the political make-up of the applicants. Gun rights are't a red/blue thing anymore; it's just a question of if the politicians are going to catch-up with the times or are the voters going let themselves be browbeat back into "guns bad!"
Point blank, the Sheriff isn't allowed to do that, and the only reason that Chester County (and I believe DelCo) are able to do that is because it's too expensive to fix, there is very little likelihood of recovering attorney's fees, so citizens (or organizations) are left paying the bill. If it weren't for GOA, Philadelphia's gun permit unit would probably still be closed today.
I'd be happy to do it again vs. Chester and Delaware Sheriffs, but it's just expensive (even at 'friendly' rates.) If you (or a group of you) are interested, let me know.
