CCW Methods & Issues > New CCW Permit Holders

Pennsylvania non resident license denied.

(1/1)

MrWatermonkey:
Has anyone had any experience with this? I have had some bullshit arrests when I was younger. But Delaware gave it to me. Why not pa? The reason listed is “other”. Apparently I need to send in a challenge form. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just Bill:
If you presented a Delaware permit, I don't understand why they did not issue????  Where did you go.  Some PA locations have changed as to how they handle non-resident.

PA gives sheriffs the right to deny based on character.  In some counties they will deny on arrests and not convictions. You did not state which county you applied.  Also ANY drug conviction no matter how minor excludes you for life from a PA license even though you can still buy a gun.

MrWatermonkey:
It was Berks county. I went there because you can get it in one day and was the closest with that option. My wife is a paralegal and at this point is suggesting I get an attorney before I challenge it to make sure I am not prohibited in pa. Ive called a couple and I think it might be a good idea.
