Ridiculous, why would anyone want to live in city/county of Denver.

Took 9 days when I did mine in 2010, and no appt. Showed up @ sheriff office w/ app, they sent me next door to get printed, when I came back they took app, prints and money and they took my picture. Said they would call when ready. Took 30 minutes. Nine days later they called and left me a message saying permit was ready, did I want to pick it up or have them mail it.

Morgan county.

Concealed Handgun Processing Status Update


Concealed Handgun Processing status update:

It was recently brought to the Sheriff’s Office attention that the lag time for the CBI and FBI background check process is taking 90 days. The CBI is in the process of resolving this issue.

The Park County Sheriff’s Office will continue to follow CRS 18-12-206. It is unlikely that you will receive your New or Renewed Concealed Handgun Permits prior to the 90th day after scheduled appointments.

Your patience and understanding is greatly appreciated!

Went for my renewal over Christmas at Douglas County.
Still do not have it.
When I called and politely asked about it, I was rudely told to be patient.
Some of our public servants need to be reminded who they work for!

Chuck, I am sorry you feel you were mistreated, I will mention it to them Monday next time I am on shift.

I am not offering this as an excuse but only an explanation as to what our Sheriff is doing while we deal with the huge demand for CCW's I'm sure you know about.

Sheriff Weaver has added manpower to help customers get in and out as quickly as possible while they are in the Office for Permits, including renewals, he has also increased hours for behind the scenes administrative duties required to process CCW's, were currently averaging about 40-50 new CCW Applications per day.

As to the 90 day waiting period, your renewal still needs to be approved by CBI and that is where the issue is, we send the required info for your renewal into CBI normally within the week you came in so I can understand how you would have issue with the wait. We have been told that CBI is taking steps to deal with the log jam in CCW but they also took a budget cut last year so take that for what you will, also understand that firearms sales have gone up far more then CCW applications, its been documented that people from CBI CCW have been moved to purchase approvals in order to deal with the legal ramifications of approval waiting time limits but understand that CBI also was denied a special budget increase for this specific situation late last year.

I'm not making excuses for CBI I don't speak for them, what I am doing is trying to explain the situation we are in, you don't talk to CBI, You talk to Bob and Karen(and possibly a couple of others brought in to help while we have this rush), two of the nicest people I have ever known who are sick to death of telling people no we will call you when CBI approves it. We don't like telling people no, its not what our Sheriff wants us to do, he wants us to do whatever we can to serve the citizens of Douglas County quickly and politely but I fear you caught one of my coworkers in a moment of weakness and or frustration, I am sorry, but rest assured we are in this together, be patient my wife is waiting for hers too.

I will certainly tell you the same thing I tell everyone who asks me, keep track of the date on your CCW and keep the 90 day wait in mind, were not sure that this "Rush" is in fact just a rush, it may be the new norm, only time will tell, so the best thing you can do is apply for your renewal 120 days prior to your CCW's expiration, I hate saying it, but that's whats going on, life would be so much easier if CBI wasn't the lone approval source for the state, even though all Sheriff's offices have access to the database.
