I passed the FBI & ATF BACKGROUND CHECK LIKE THOSE BEFORE ME HERE IN NEVADA! I will pass the same back ground test for Utah !! I have my Ccw now for Nevada,it took 78 Days!! Sent out Utah the same day Via My local Sherrif dept! Have not gotten the Permit yet! Am a senior and like to travel. THE ECONOMY DICTATES I PROTECT MY SELF AND LOVED ONE's 24/7 !! Any Idea how long the process takes for Utah?I'm told 120 days. H- NEVADA
@Xx256xx1 I believe the deadline is 60 days (not calendar). I also believe that in-state applicants have priority over out of state applicants. In the past the BCI has been backlogged and not able to issue permits within the mandated 60 days. You may want to call the BCI and see if there is any problem with your application if you have been waiting longer than 60 business days (Please note that government entities have Friday off and so only work 4 days a week, so this should extend the
@Xx256xx1 (continued): calculation on time to receipt). The number for Utah BCI is: 801-965-4445 they are open 7:00 am to 6:00 pm Mountain Time, Monday through Thursday. The office is closed Fridays, weekends, and state holidays.
ALL THESE LAWS only hurt the law abiding citizens. U think the gangs and the killers are going to break these laws anyways?? Ofcoarse! All these stupid laws only hurt the good law abiding citizens who have the right to bear arms and to defend themselves.
get rid of the whole permit program. Just let people carry guns freely without having to pay to own the right to bear arms. Not only that, but if one wants to get hands on military, or law enforcement weapons, one has to pay a heavy tax and go through court. Makes no sense why one needs to pay to use his 2nd ammendmant rights.
Nationwide CCW is going to happen, whether Utah leads the effort or Florida or Texas or whomever.
Utah's standards are pretty tight compared to most states from what I have seen and you *must* get training from a Utah certified instructor even if you already have CCW in your own state.
I think Utah is doing the nation a good service by allowing itself to be the conduit for nationwide CCW and can make some good money from it.
You are out of your gourd if you really think nation wide CCW is EVER going to happen! It won't be long before they try and come to your dorr and get the ones you have! Our government is NOT OUR government anymore and hasen't been for years! We the people are NOT represented in our government...who are you kidding! They are there for what THEY can get...PERIOD!
How do you measure goodness? Of course this doesn't scare me nearly as much as the states (like my own) that would like to or have already started to recognize CWPs on state-owned campuses. As a university student, I can say that most kids my age are way too volatile for that kind of trust (not excluding myself).
@bugQ If the state gives them the responsibility and privilege of carrying a firearm everywhere else, why NOT in their school so they can defend themselves AND YOU from those who would do violence upon you or others? The state does it's checks and they certify someone to carry at the mall or in the grocery store. I mean people you walk by every day might be carrying and have they shot anyone in anger? Probably not.
I can understand from a fiscal standpoint why Utah citizens may not want to pay for this but this is absolutely not a "safety" issue. The background and training requirements are the same regardless of the applicants residency. Has anybody been able to show a single example of a non-resident legally carrying a gun with a Utah permit committing a violent crime?

40k CCWs = $4mil for Utah.

I know Utah allows Canadians to get CWP even though we can't conceal carry in Canada.
