The new amendment

[billy82269]

I have a question about the new amendment. Since we have it now, are we going to still need to pay the state $125 every 4 years to exercise what is now a recognized constitutional right?

 

[Vermiform]

Yes.

 

[paddle007]

Yes unless you will be "The One" to test it. Deep pockets?

You could always sue Before you go to jail on the grounds that you'd Like to cc with no permit, but your rights are being violated by the State preventing you from doing so.

BTW, you get 5 years with your permit. Paying for the permit is worth it anyway, since I travel to Florida and ArKansas on a semi regular basis, it is nice to know I am covered in other states. Now do I believe the government has any position limit the right to keep or bear any arms, up to the highest developed weapons the government posses, or in the way I decide to carry them? NO. Do I have the means to challenge that? NO.

Question, I believe I paid $100 ( due to my age)for 4 years ago next March , has it it increased ? My eyes are too blurry to do the search at this time. Thanks

At some point in the past 4 years they changed the permit to 5 years and price to $125.

Thanks , I will prepared for this March to pay more.

Mine expires in March and I got my renewal letter last week. Going to take care of it sooner than later.

You didn't state your current age so I will add to the comments. The renewal fee is $125 for five years unless you are age 65 or older - then it is $62.50.

The CWP renewal course fee is less for a renewal. You will want to schedule your course now as some classes are booked up until January at this point. The current backlog on permit issuing is between 6-8 weeks.

You likely need to figure all of this into your planning so that you will receive your permit in a timely manner.

Thanks guys , I am 68 and going to central Fl. for the winter . I need to get busy with the refresher class . Is there a deadline or a too early date ,after taking the class to apply for the renewal ?

Depending on where you take your renewal - some have the notary work done for you right then and there. If that is the case, your notary work expires in 60 days. The workshop certificate is good for one year.

This is from the LSP website regarding renewals. It sounds like there is no "too early date". The LSP site also states that applications can take up to 120 days.

Renewals:
Permit holders will be notified in writing at their address of record, approximately 120 days prior to the expiration of their permit to begin the renewal process.
Upon notification, download and complete the Concealed Handgun Permit Application.
Submit the renewal application with a new passport photograph, a new training certificate, a photocopy of your driver's license, and the appropriate fees.
The completed application should be returned to the Department no less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the permit to allow sufficient time for processing.
You must submit your application within 60 days after the expiration date or you will be required to submit a new original application including fingerprints.
All completed renewal applications must be submitted to:
Louisiana State Police
Concealed Handgun Permit Unit
PO Box 66375
Baton Rouge, LA 70896
