Shasta County CCW Policy, Guidelines and Forms can be found Here
Update from Citadel on recent Shasta County changes:
|
Not very difficult to get a CCW here, although the interview takes longer than it should, asking way too many questions and fishing for questionable stuff. Also, they won't let you put more than 3 guns on your license... I'd really like to see that restriction go away!
Everyone who lives in Shasta Co. has no excuse for not getting a CCW. |

There are certain things that the S.O. will need to change to maintain good standing with CGF and the people of Shasta County. Everyone in Shasta County should be able to obtain and hold a license to carry, but unfortunately that isnt always the case. |
"Everyone in Shasta County should be able to obtain and hold a license to carry"
I don't know, there are some people here that I would not want to have a gun at all, let alone concealed. ;) I get your meaning though. |

The three gun max on your permit, the one year proof of residency requirement, etc. all need to go away.

The age, citizenship, and residency requirements are not authorized by statute and should be challenged. |
Since the Shasta County CCW application specifies that the information is public, what is taking so long to get the information posted on the CalGuns website?

Please scan and post the response that was sent by the Shasta County Sheriffs office and we can begin to apply local pressure.

Rumor: Shasta county will not accept your CCW Training Class unless it was completed within the two prior months of your CCW application date. If you wait more than 2 months after completing your class then you can expect to be instructed to take your class again.
This was reported as a recent policy change. Note: I've contributed as a sponsor in hopes that it helps make Shasta County move along a bit faster. |
Good gravy, I thought Shasta Co. was all but "Shall Issue"! What needs to be done "faster"?
|
My comment regarding Shasta County/faster is in reference to their failure, thus far, to submit the CCW good cause statements that were requested by CalGuns.

I understand from Shasta Shooters, Sheriff Palmer was stopping in town for the Oregon CCW. Unfortunately, I didn't see my mail, as it was in the junk pile for some unknown reason.. Did this already happen and if so, does anyone know if he will re appear anytime soon?
|
This discussion is far too quiet....
|
While the Sheriff does want to Cover His A _ _ by making sure that he follows the letter of the law, and this may cause extra steps/time, the bottom line is he supports CCW's and we should, in turn, support him. Ask those in SoCal as to what it is like down there... A bit of patience and perseverance and as long as you are clean you will get the permit. Gone are the days of a quick chat with Pope. Now a laminated card would be nice.

Breaking the law a little is just as bad as breaking the law alot. It is however, much worse, to claim that they are extending the full benefit of the 2A under the pretense of authority, while punishing those with whom they disagree by using a license to carry as the means to control their actions. I contend that such people are in violation of the Oath they took to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and are unworthy of the office they hold. The applies in southern California as well as it does right here in Shasta County. |

A license to carry is neither a carrot, nor a stick.

While the Sheriff generally supports issuance, politics has no bearing on how he follows the law. An issuing agency cannot use licensing as a tool to compel performance or as a means of punishment for otherwise lawful activity. |
Still looking for facts that are specific to Shasta County...
|
The silence is unbearable!

The interesting thing about Shasta County, is that it is the least expected battlefield in the war, because it is generally assumed that the Sheriff is '2A' friendly, will issue, and abides by the law. This may be in part be why there isnt alot of attention to the topic of CCW policy here. Funny thing is, it's not going to stay that way if I have anything to do with it. |
I have updated my sig line to include my sponsorship of the CCW initiative in Shasta County.
I have recently affirmed that Shasta County is not as 2A friendly as many purport and is not a 'shall issue' county. |
I know the sheriff just well enough to get a pass on CCW, but probably not well enough to influence him toward shall issue. But if there is anything I can do to help I’ll try.
|
Anyone know when a show near by this area, will have the Sheriff present? Sac maybe, Yuba City??

Back on topic, what's up with the Shasta County daylight project? (I see we now have two sponsors)
|
So- has the Sheriff's Office made any progress with providing the materials requested by CPRA?

Hey Rock, sorry for the post and run… It is my experience with past sheriffs and the current one that in the past it was a breeze to get a CCW, but now there is all the training/paperwork requirements. It is my opinion that the Sheriff takes it as a personal responsibility to follow the current laws concerning issuance of a CCW in Ca. Could be simply political CYA like KidS posted, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt. What would lead you to believe he does not support CCW?
That said, I understand CitaDels point on upholding the Constitution, specifically the 2A that gives individuals RTKBA protection from the Feds and the 14A P or I clause that applies those same protections against the states. But, I have not heard of anyone who has been denied here that has a clean record. Until the whole state has constitutional carry, or at least is “Shall Issue” I would like to see Shasta County follow Sacs lead and have self defense as a good cause and allow more guns on a plastic card instead of the paper form. |
Wchutt, you asked "What would lead you to believe he (Shasta County Sheriff) does not support CCW?"
Reply: The lack of a response to the CalGuns request for information. Information which is listed as releasable on the Sheriff website. Additionally I dislike the 3 gun limit. |
I too dislike the three gun thing, dislike the paper permit even more. That the Sheriffs office is slow in responding to the request for the cause statements does not mean that he has not actually supported those who have requested permits.
If the sheriff’s office is issuing permits to those people who apply and have no hang-ups legally, I see that as supporting the right to carry. If there are cases where people have been denied ONLY because of inadequate good cause statements, that would change my opinion, but I have not heard of that being the case. |
