Congratulation on your new CC permit use it with pride.... Hope you enjoyed lunch with the wife.
Got my Pistol Permit today
After three trips back to the Attorney General office to bring more documents not specified in the application, I picked up my permit today. Two weeks ago, I received a letter that said my application was denied because of lack of need. In reality, they just wanted more information but didn't say so in the letter. Had I not appealed the decision and requested an appointment, it would have been a dead issue. It appears that they have only one form letter. The whole approval process took about 7 weeks and cost me over $300. I'm good for four years.
I went directly home, slipped my Bersa Thunder 380 into an IWB holster, and took the bride out for lunch. There's a nice feeling knowing you have a tool that you hope to never use.
Carry on!

Not in Texas. Here you have a God given right to own a gun but to carry a concealed gun the state wants to make sure you know the law and know how to use a gun plus you are not one of those wackos. All you need to is take a CHL class and pass, apply for a CHL permit to the State of Texas and if you pass the background check and you paid the fee they will send you your license. Easy if you are one of the GG's.
Just for clarification, Rhode Island is a shall/may issue state. Like most states, you need to take a gun safety course, qualify, and have a clean record. If you go to your local police chief and meet all requirements, they shall issue. Unfortunately, many of the chiefs require a psychological profile at an additional cost to the applicant of ~$300. The Attorney General Office may issue depending on their interpretation of your need and/or the phase of the moon.Not in Texas.

Requesting a pistol permit for self defense or to exercise your rights under the Second Amendment will immediately send your application to the circular file.
It's a strange little place to live.
I know what you mean, I was born and raised in NYC and have a couple of girlfriends in R.I. plus other surrounding areas but that was a whole lot of years ago.
