Hello, I am from a small town in northern Indiana. I know a couple of guys who have applied for LTCH and have reported negative experiences with our local police. (both have clean records - both were previously in the military - my record is spotless as well, but I was never military)
One guy quoted the chief officer as saying he "didn't think people needed to be carrying guns in this town".
They have reported a four month wait with no word, and the other fellow, who applied later, has been waiting over two months. What I wonder is: is the system backlogged this far? Or could the local officer be delaying the process purposefully? (simply not sending the paperwork out etc..)
I plan to apply for my license to carry very soon and would like to know what I can do to expedite the process. I could also use some tips for dealing with this officer that does not want citizens to exercise the right to carry guns in "his town".
I would appreciate any advice you can give me. Thank you.
