These guy's are fast...mailed it out Monday,,Received it Sat....they don't play in PA...
Thanks to everyone for the info to get it done...now to move on to Florida...

I need to do this too...so what website did you hit for the application materials and who to send it to? Please advise.
Thanks!

Check the sticky at the top of this forum.

All the info is there,,down load the form,,print it out..quick and easy...

If it was Centre County, I think Sheriff Nau is exceptional for PA non-res. Congrats & Enjoy!

I was thinking of doing this, but thought it would be much harder to get.

soooo easy..follow the thread..after you download the form,,you can have it in the mail in 10 min...

Back in the day....

I think the fee for non-resident hunter was $12. Things have certainly changed since then , but PA is a state that makes a TON of money from hunting and fishing. Encouraging more people into the state is certainly in their best interests.

Sent mine in last Sat, I guess I'll have it soon.

Just remember,when you get it,,you have to sign it,and send part back...or it's ng...

I just printed it out.

One of the questions says "Are you a habitual drunkard?"

I don't know why, but seeing that on an official type form made me laugh  

They don't say it's a bad thing....

I just had a question the other day asking if I had belonged to any group that has planned or plans to overthrow the government and I asked the person responsible for the applications if being a American counts.......

Possible answer:

"No, but I am willing to learn."
"Only on days that name end with a Y"
"No, I need all my energy for crack cocaine."
"Not currently, but when my parole is up, I plan to be."
"Not habitual, however, the twelve times I did drink, I blacked out and woke up in jail."

Or a simple "No." might work.

Thanks for the laugh!

I think it will look like that soon...they already say if your a vet, they better watch you,,,I'am in tbl,I guess..

Is this for a PA CCW?? I'm in PA fairly often, I'd love to be able to carry there.
I was considering a job in PA over the summer, their CCW laws are very appealling compared to LI. I even joined the PAFOA (Pennsylvania Firearms Owners Association).

congrats on the license. Isnt great to know that you can protect to family in PA, but not in your own state...lol. PA trusts us, but not NY. @ssholes

I kinda find that question amusing being that in PA, apparently you can't buy a six-pack or a bottle of beer at a convenience store like we do here at 7-11....   You have to go to a beer distributor and can only buy CASES...

Is it just me or does that encourage more drinking?...  Me, I wanna get a 6-pack, for two of us it's enough...  Have to buy a case, well that just makes it more likely to have 4, 5, 6, maybe sevTHUD! oopshie, I fall down...wheresh my beer???

There are a lot of Blue Law places in PA. I was at a party once, at Slippery Rock U, and the Police came in "raiding" a party. People were dragging me out the back door saying I would be arrested. I told them I am over 21, and they said they will arrest me and charge me if they find one minor at the party. Anyone over 21 would be arrested.

Another time, a friend in Scranton went to a tattoo shop and was told there was a 48 hour wait for a tattoo, to make sure it was not "impulse".

Some towns will fine you for possession of alcohol on Sunday.

For all the BS laws about guns in NY, thank wheat they did not pass these stupid alcohol laws!

great..will you try for the florida permit ........

Can somebody show me where I can find the information to apply for Pennsylvania please?

http://longislandfirearms.com/forum/m-1252615661/

All they need is a copy of your pistol license (restricted is fine), copy of driver license, their form and a check for $25.
They ROCK!!

It's for a non-resident FULL conceal carry permit.
Mine took 5 business days to receive, Centre Co. as well.
I WISH NY was that easy.

BTW.. IIRC Pa. is also an open carry state without a permit.
Research it before relying on my posts. LOL

Add the PA Sheriff's Office to your list of Holiday cards too

Not quite as easy as that but almost.  A few points differ.  I'm open to PMs if anyone has PA questions, as always.

I mailed out the PA license papers Friday. Let's see how long this takes. I bet I have it by the end of this week.

Just got my PA license today. Total time about 12 days - Got to love reason for carry: Self-Defense.

I sent in my papers a week ago Friday, got it today. 10 days round trip.

Great news,,will you try for Florida????

Quoted from Lazygent

Sooner or later, yes.

Mailed mine on Friday, Wait and see.

congrats to all. Isnt nice to know that you can protect yourself in another state, but not your own...lol

I want to get my PA license also. I have all of my stuff ready to go out in the mail....I have one question, what form of payment did you guys send? Personal check. money order, bank check?

personal check..no tbl...they are great ..super fast...the way it should be...

Quoted from Lazygent

Thanks.

It's nice to be able to state "self defense" as the reason.

they are great there,,nice to see there are still some good people in power out there...And if you ever
have to call them,,you will be surprised how nice they are..Makes you want to jump in the truck
and visit PA.....

Florida is next.....I requested all of the paperwork yesterday.

Right on....

I wonder how much extra revenue LIF has steered to Center County this year alone?
And is the good sheriff a guest/member of the forum?

Dov

Centre county is making LOTS of money from all over the country. Long Islanders are just a drop in the bucket.   However that's all about to change when the new uniform state wide licensing takes effect. No more through the mail IIRC.

Sent mine this morning  

We'll deal with the drive if we need to make it.  PA is beautiful and they deserve our money.

+1 for the PA license process...I did that last month and it was smooth and easy.

Do we need a NY CCW or just a regular license to get a PA one.

Sportsman will do.

has anyone done this in a county other than centre?  somewhere like delaware montgomery bucks or chester counties?

MONTCO is a no go, though the Sheriff just died, I doubt anything will change.

Bucks and Chester, probly not, somewhere out west would be a better bet.

Got my PA CCW this passed Saturday. I sent everything out on the 6th and got it on the 13th.

Just got mine today. Sent it out last Monday or Tuesday, man there quick.

Sent it in last Sat and got it today-NICE
