My Steuben County CCW interview is tomorrow!

[Kirk_STNY]

Yikes! I don't know what to expect. Any advice?

I will be myself and answer honestly. But it helps to know what to expect.

2A all the way!

 

[togmaster]

"Any advice?"

Don't fuck up.


j/k
Good luck.

 

[Edwardteach72]

Good luck you should be just fine

Wink at the judge. He'll know what it means.

Check your fly.

 

[kev74]

Check your fly.

While you wink at him.

He'll know what it means.

I find 8-10 shots of whiskey before a stressful meeting tends to take the edge off.

Well, you'll never have to meet with them twice, at least.

 

[Calculon]

All legal purposes.

 

[Gonzobird]

Where a clean suit. Look presentable. Don't sit until told or invited to do so. Speak only when spoken to. Call the Judge "Your Honor".

An Interview? What a joke. This State is utter shit! Basically your begging for your "rights" is what we have here.

What's funny is it's one of the more pro 2A counties especially for handguns

And atleast once he gets his license he wont have to beg permission to add a new handgun and wait 6 months each time to be able to pick it up

 

[Kirk_STNY]

Well I don't think that winking was a good idea. They put me in jail for 3 hours. Glad I didn't check my fly......

Anyway, the "interview" was me and a deputy going over the forms while he filled them out.

Now it goes back to the Clerk's office. They send it to the judge who approves it. I don't appear before the judge.

Then they send me a letter when done.

We are a Republican County, not a lot of hoops to jump through.

2A all the way!

 

[BDinPutnam]

Good job Kirk!

If I'm not mistaken it's also one or the counties that will give you purchasing tickets so you can just have one on hand so you can pay and take home a handgun same day with out taking a trip to the permit office

I believe so. I'm pretty sure Chemung County nextdoor does it.

2A all the way!

Nope chemung (unless they have changed their policy very recently) says it's illegal and no one does it, and I didnt feel like arguing with them when I asked if I could get one for a trip out of town

I was handed two of those golden tickets when my permit was granted back in 94.. I felt like Charlie Bucket for a day..

The permit lady who runs it now (has for almost 5 years now) almost lost her shit when I got my permit, returned same day like 20min later to add an amendment. She no shit looked at me and said the ink isnt even dry on your permit

I keep one of the Livingston county version in my wallet "just in case".

Never know when you're going to run across a deal.

 

[Kirk_STNY]

In Steuben county, the golden tickets are good for 10 days. And must be returned if not used. Else they will come looking for you. I'm grateful for the convenience.

The one thing steuben has over chemung.

Yep
Here in Chautauqua there is no interview, no amendments, no restrictions.....
When you buy a gun you just go to the clerk, add the handgun, then go pick it up. Takes about 20 minutes in total from purchase to pick up for me.

Adding the gun is the amendment.. they are "amending" the license

 

[ArmedCorgi]

It definitely helps if you don't have diarrhea and shit up your back.

I had a similar experience. I got the call my permit was ready on a Wednesday and picked it up that Thursday. I took the day off from work, got my permit the hour the County Clerk's office opened. Went home and immediately called around to the various gun stores in my area to see if they had any of the handguns on my list. None of them had my 1st choice (S&W 686), so I went and bought my G23 and drove right back to the clerks office. He said "well that was fast" and I was just like, "well yeah, I had a lot of time to research while I waited for my permit." Which I did. Didn't help my cause. I ended up waiting three or four weeks for the amendment to be approved. During which I bought a second handgun, lol. So I ended up getting both of those amendments at the same time.

I remember getting my approval letter on a Wednesday. Not sure why but I figured I'd grab the mail while having a cigarette, and there it was I was approved..

I went immediately to the office to get my license. And from there I went to the closed FFL who just so happened to have a glock 19 in stock as well, paid for it and back to the permit office. The lady looked at me and with a straight face said "wow that was extremely fast, the ink hasn't even dried on you license" then she printed off my updated license and I was off to go pick up my 19

It honestly surprises me they are surprised when someone picks up their newly minted permit and immediately goes and buys a gun. Do they all really think we are just stumbling into this? Thanks to NY we all have ample time to research and decide what we want, so that when the day comes that we get our permit, we already know what we want and we don't waste any more time getting it. They seriously must think that people apply for their permits not really knowing why and that they shouldn't know what they want by the time they get their permits. Like we should all be like "well what the fuck am I supposed to do with this?" on the day we pick up our permits, lol.
