Re: Pistol Permit Application Processing Time By Local PD in CT
Some partial movement. Left voice mail message this morning for the NHPD Firearms unit asking about status. No call back of course. Called again around 4 pm and finally got a detective who said they were "going to call me" about setting up an interview time. I had to bite my tongue to avoid saying something sarcastic like; "When? In another 5 months". I asked for the earliest possible time (tomorrow thank goodness) for an interview appointment. Apparently New Haven does an interview (which is bogus and not required by state statute by the way) and then they send the permit application on to the Chief for him to OK or reject. Well the NHPD chief is retiring in two weeks (I think) so it will be interesting to see what they say about the turn around time between the interview and the acceptance or rejection and how they inform me of that. The detective I spoke with did apologise and claimed (don't know if I believe it) that they've got a big backlog of permits.
I also called the State Police Special Licensing and Firearms Division this morning and got voice mail for the Firearms section, I left a message with them indicating that NHPD has been slow (as in 5 months slow) in processing my permit application and gave them the various reasons NHPD has given me every time I've spoken with them. I doubt they'll call back. |
