based on experiences i’ve seen, and read, the lead time to obtain a CCW here in California has been extremely lengthy, especially here in Los Angeles County. however i feel likely process is going relatively quicker compared to others. (LASD)
so I thought i’d share my application process so far.
I submitted my application april 20th,
got approved to take my live scan the following day,
went to take it, paid.
got another email stating to have my references call my investigator the day before, or after my interview date.
Interview day May 5th
the interview was quick. I was told to expect to wait 1-2 months to get approval to take my 16 hour classes but that i might get it sooner. at this rate i feel like i obtain mine in approximately 6 months or less. which is way less than the 1-2 year stories i’ve heard.
Did they get sued or something 🤣 maybe more LEOs working on CCWs? or maybe less people are applying ?
