Hello all,

This looks like a great site. It looks exactly like a Miata site where I've learned an enormous amount and I look forward to the same here.

Due to my job in general and an incident that happened there yesterday, I want a CCW. I don't hardly know where to begin. I'd love to PM or call someone to point me in the right direction. I THINK I've got GC, I know it's the Sherriff who I have to satisfy, I know a couple of other details and that's it at this point. I look forward to your help. Thanks!

Wow...thanks for the multiple quick responses. However, really demoralizing.

I sit like a fish in a barrel in a 15x20 room with ONE way in and out. And I just have to sit there and hope for the best?

Man I feel for you. Now that I have carried for a little bit I feel naked without my CCW. In you case I would feel even more so. Good luck to you!

Just curious. What is your school's policy for employees? Something tells me you would have a problem there too. Even with a CCW.

Default employer policy

My feeling on that is what my employer didn't know wouldn't hurt them.
