When you ask for a permit extension for another 90 days, is the extension 90 days from the original expiration date or from the day you ask from the extension? Also can you get an extension on two permits at the same time? I think I will submit for four more permits as soon my two permits come in and I want to know how the process works. Since the NICS is taking so long If you got more than three permits you would have to get an extension on one or more permits or they would expire.

i believe the extension is from the day they would expire,

90 additional days...Total of 180 from ORIGINAL date - not a second longer...

 

Yes, you may get an extension on up to 3 at a time...

 

I got six some time ago...Used 3, got an extension for 3...But with NICS getting worse day-by-day, I will likely only be able to use 2 of the last 3....

I got four in January and asked what the rule was in my town as it is impossible to use 4 in 90 days, heck it is impossible to actually use 3 in 90 days. I was told I could have them all extended on the spot for the full 180 days, which I did.

When they sign the extension there is a spot to fill in the date they signed, the extension is good for 90 days from that date. I had 2 extended on my last round of permits. Just be aware, the extension is at the discretion of your CLEO and not mandatory or guaranteed.

Wrong! Combat Auto got it correct - it is a total of 180 days from the date of issue shown on the permit.

When I got mine they told me it was from the renewal date. That is the information I was going by, sorry for any confusion.

That extra handful of days added to the process can really throw a wrench into the works.

Between delays from NICS and some snags getting a pistol shipped from GB, this'll put my 1911 plan on the shelf.

 

Does anyone think towns will eventually just give 180 days from the start? Seems like a good compromise since the NICS is getting ridiculous.

 

Has anyone ever heard of someone getting denied the extension? I heard the police chief can say no if he wants.

Yea the way nics is now you probably couldn't make it with six. I'm starting to think I might be close with five. With a few holidays coming as well you know they are closed and if somebody goes on vacation, forget about it.

Are permit extensions pretty much a slam dunk? I'm wondering as I got 3 permits and the last 1 is going to expire before 30 days is up. I'm wondering if any one has any experience getting an extension in Union Township.

 

I'm not even sure if you can even use 5 in 180 days with the rate of NICS check recently.

I think it varies from town to town.. My town sounds pretty easy going about extensions (they mentioned the extension possibility up front when I picked up my permits). Ymmv
