I just went to the state police to pick up paperwork for a handgun permit, they told me to come back next tuesday as the one and only person who hands out the paperwork isnt in untill then.

I asked could he give me the form as i have to fill it out and bring it back, he said no, come back next week.

Is this normal or something new?

(never had a real problem before accept when i picked up a hand gun permit before, 4 cops came out and watched me sign the permit,real up close and personal like)

download SP-66 and fill it out, you only need one copy

 

download "Application for Firearms Purchaser Identification Card / Application to purchase a Hangun" fill it out and print two copies

 

Those are the ONLY LEGAL FORMS.

 

Don't forget to sign the forms.

 

In my town, when we pick up permits, they take a picture of us - I'm thinking of going in next time and taking a picture of them when I hand in my application along with that day's newspaper so that there's no confusion as to WHEN I dropped off my forms.
