Need a CCW ASAP

[Quicslvr13]

Hey guys,

I know new people tend to bug in fourms since they do not know the lingo and all the Faq's but i have a predicament that I feel requires me to get a CCW soon. Im looking for help and anyone who would be willing to look over my Faq's so I can make sure and get one soon. I live in Riverside county which I know is tough (had Russ Leech as a professor in college and he said he has only signed about half a dozen) but please help in any way possible...

Thanks.

If you need it ASAP you need to move counties, Riverside is very restrictive.

The only problem with that is the length of time it takes to establish residency in another county. Might be better for him to stick it out in Riverside. If it's an emergency situation, he may at least be able to get a temporary license.

Thanks guys but it sounds like Im not going to be able to get one. CCWI said that it doesnt look like im going to get one. Good thing I know alot of defensive tacticts and have had alot of training on awareness and what not. I alwayse cary a knife and some police grade pepper spray too but if the attacker has a gun im out of luck... Im going to be moving to orange county in about 4 months so hopefully it will be alot easier. Just hope nothing happens before that. How hard is it to get a temporary since it is mostly a temporary issue I am dealing with that if nothing would happen in the next year then probably nothing would happen at all?

So does San Bernardino County, and it is closer to his work.

While moving to Fresno may, in itself, eliminate the immediate threat, if it doesn't he still has the problem of the length of time the Fresno County Sheriff requires you to live there before you can apply. How long is that? 90 days? 6 months? 1 year?

Same applies for moving to OC, which he says he plans to do in about four months. Even if he moved here today, he has to be here for 90 days before he can apply. That's a long time when you're facing an immediate threat.

Yes, but not only does he have the same problem with the length of time required to establish residency, in San Bernardino the wait time once you apply is up to one year if I recall correctly from other posts. How does that help with an immediate threat?

A few yrs ago, my brother, who lives in Inyo County, got a temporary at the suggestion and encouragement of local LE. He was receiving life threatning phone calls (terrorist threats).

Unfortunately his is work related, and he works for a anti-gun business. Even for personal protection, they would check with that business. . . .
