I'm SomeGuyinOC

[SomeGuyinOC]

Hello I’m “someguyinoc” and I live and work in Orange County. I am very interested with obtaining a CCW and have been snooping around a little. With the new sheriff being announced today, do you think it maybe to late for me?

I’m hoping I can be guided trough the process, and not make any mistakes on the way. Everyone here seems very knowledgeable about the process and I hope to learn more. Thank you for creating such a great site.

Welcome.

As to the new sheriff, it's a little too early to tell. In any case, it will depend on your good cause (do not post it here). If you have formulated your good cause statement, and would like someone to review it, I suggest you send an email to CCW Instructor with "Good Cause" in the subject line.

welcome.

email Greg@firearmstraining.com for good cause review

I've sent the email out to Greg for review and hopfully he will find that I do in fact have a good cause and should proceed.

Thanks guys.

FYI Sandra Hutchens is our new Sheriff. Does that mean anything, what are her views on CCW? Anyone know?

We don't know yet. At the moment all we have is speculation.

Well I do know she worked under Lee Baca and we all know how Sheriff Baca feels about CCWs. I just hope his views havent rubbed off on her.

There is also a 7th that CCWI likes to refer to as "Other" Good luck researching and reading the various threads. The categories are here.
