concealed carry license?

Post by Cuddle_fish » Tue Apr 04, 2017 2:42 pm

I want to get a concealed carry permit for the first time. Could someone run me through the process? What to expect and how long it will take? I live on south hill near 57th, is there somewhere I can get this done at on the hill or should I go to the police station in downtown Spokane. I am also planning on moving at the end of this month, will that be an issue?

Thanks

You have to go down to the sheriff's office at the courthouse. It is in the back building. You fill out the form and get finger printed. After that you wait for the permit. It can take 30 days. Moving may be an issue with getting it because it comes in the mail and your address on it would be wrong at that point too.

Note that the licensing office is closed on Wednesday.

Another note, plan on waiting in line for awhile. The last time that I did a renewal I was in line for over an hour.

It may depend on the day and time of day, because I had to renew mine a couple of months ago and I only had to wait in line a few minutes. You can get the application off of the spokane city website so you can print it off and fill it in ahead of time.

Was in there today, they are now closed on Monday's instead of Wednesday's. Was in and out in about 25 minutes, and then it got busy, I got lucky.
