    Smile NonResident LTCF in Pittsburgh

    VIsited the Sheriff's office yesterday to see about getting a Non-Resident LTCF permit. The Allegheny County Sheriff does NOT process applications from Non-PA residents. The deputy running the desk said none of the nearby counties do either. She referred me to Centre County. Luckily, I checked this web site and found Somerset County will process my application/issue an NR permit. The Allegheny County Deputy also inferred that the LTCF permits issued to Non-Residents were only good in the county of issue. From everything I have read, that is just not true. She said only retired law enforcement could get a state-wide permit. That is certainly contrary to what the law says. Seems the sheriff here is not overly 2A friendly!!

    WOW... that employee is completely mis-informed and/or playing stupid

    ALL PA sheriffs (and Philly police chief) are supposed to issue to qualified non-residents.

    The deputy emphatically told me they do NOT process NR permit requests. She went on to day to her knowledge, none of the nearby counties do either. She also seemed to believe that only retired police officers could get "state-wide" NR permits. I didn't push it, but going in there with a lawyer could be fun!!! Any lawyers on the forum that want to stir the pot? I'll be your spoon!!!

    But that's not the point. SHall Issue to anybody not statutorily disqualified.

    Getting an AZ permit does not get one around the PA GFSZ.

    I am getting so sick of this absolute crap getting stated by our Sheriffs, we have some that just flat out refuse to do it without making excuses, others that make excuses for it and lie about the process and one that refuses to issue to non-residents of states that don't have reciprocity with PA.

    Then we have a committee that met in secret and made the process more difficult for non-residents without having any statutory authority to do so.

    Then we have State Represntatives and Senators that flat out don't care that their local officials have committed crimes punishable by thousands of years in prison when added up together.
