Has anyone recently applied though the City of Atascadero? I see that they don’t allow the magazine of the firearm to extend past the bottom of the mag well. That’s weird.
Also, how do I go about proving ownership and registration of the firearm that I wish to CCW?
One of our students completed a LASD firearm modification qualification with us at Burro Canyon on Sunday, May 3.
He submitted his modification paperwork and training certificate the same day.
Timeline:
• May 3: Qualification completed and documents submitted
• May 11: Approved for pickup
• May 15: Pickup appointment completed
Student said the pickup process at LASD was extremely smooth. They used the existing CCW photo, printed the updated permit ahead of time, and the entire visit took about 5 minutes.
This is another indication LASD modifications are moving much faster than many people expect.
Reminder:
• LASD requires qualification/training documentation within 30 days
• You must list all firearms currently on the permit plus the new firearm being added
• Bring matching firearm information exactly as registered/DROS’d
For those asking, LASD modifications are definitely active right now.
No communication for a year whatsoever. Am I screwed should I send another email?
Does anyone know forsure?
I'm new to CCW, should have my permit in the next few weeks. I've got my IWB appendix holster, but I am leaning towards strong side carry. Somewhere between 3 and 4 o'clock.
I'm likely going to buy a Protos M to try that out. I know they make it for IWB or OWB, but is IWB really practical and remotely comfortable? or for strong side, do I basically have to commit to OWB and make sure my clothing covers it all up.
I have been trying to get my CCW since April of 2025. I submitted my application on 04/01/2025 and provided all the requested documents as well as the money order. I got a call in 02/2026 saying my turn was up for the interview. I completed the psych exam in mid March (2026), and the firearms training course on 03/22/2026. About a week later they called my references and its been dark since (Beginning of April/end of March). I have sent a couple emails to the PD as well as called but I havent been able to get an anwer on the status of my CCW. I have been proactive in trying to figure out what is going on but dont want to bombard the PD and have a posible rejection. I submitted my application before the online portal was created so there i no where to check online. I was just curious if anyone has applied through Glendale PD and how long does it take once youve completed the requirements to recieve your permit. Also would appreciate hearing everyones personal experiences going through/getting their CCW in CA. Thank you all in advance.
March 24-May 15 with May 15th be in the pick up day for my CCW
