Pistol permit approved in Tioga County

[Zem18]

Well I applied for my pistol permit in Tioga County NY  on March 7th 2014, and 50 days later I received a call from the clerk that my permit was approved and I could pick it up M -F between 8 & 4. How cruel that she left a message at 345pm on Friday. Guess I will have to leave work early or go in late one day this week to go pick it up. Thankfully I don't live in one of the counties that is taking up to 18 months to hear back, and no interviews. Now to pick out a pistol.

Thanks. I picked it up today and had a weird encounter with the clerk. I said I was there to pick up my permit and she asked if that was all we were doing today (meaning was I going to add a pistol) Now I know you cannot even handle a pistol in a shop without having a permit or a coupon from the sheriff, which I don't think they hand out so it was odd to me that she thought I was going to add one today. Now to go shopping ( more like convince the wife)

Congrats.. my brother just got his in Onondaga County... I was surprised it only took 6 weeks.

It's all in where you are I guess. Most of the counties near NYC have 12 to 18 month waits according to another forum. Tioga had an 8 month wait last year after Cuomo had his Safe act brain aneurysm. I skipped the lines and got mine in 7 weeks.

My daughter applied for her PP in Erie county in February 2013. She just got the word to pick it up this Monday. 15 months from the time application was submitted.
