I'm surprised by how slow CO is. When he said 4 months I thought for sure he was from California.

Thats only if you have a good enough reason.

OP: Is it a free state you're in, or do you need to go through a whole process with your reasons for needing defense?

Took about a month and a half or two months for mine to be approved.

Yeah it would.. Good thing there isn't much of a reason to go there.

My state doesn't require CCW permit.

no its not free. my county charged 140 bucks for it which is non-refundable if its denied. all i had to do was fill out the application and provide proof of firearm training. I was Air Force Law Enforcement for 10 years and my DD214 showed my expert qualificaiton on the M9, M16 and other weapons qualifications like the MK19, 80mm morter and M2 50 cal. plus i submitted my hunters safty card and thats all they wanted.

You're absolutely right. Canada does not recognize licenses to carry from the state of Colorado.

Don't shoot any kids riding bikes in front of your house.

To get away from idiots like you? That sounds like a great reason to me.

all of my handguns are to large to be comfortable or easily concealed so i was thinking about getting a 380

 

[pontifex]

Mine took about 3 weeks I think. I live in PA.

Although, I have only carried once since I got it.
