Hopefully soon. I'm kind of surprised I haven't heard anything yet. Though a buddy of mine turned in all his paperwork the exact same day (within the hour actually) I turned in mine and hasn't heard anything yet either. So I'm guessing they're just REALLY back logged on applications.

I'm inquiring for a friend from Tulare County who is showing some interest in obtaining her CCW. For those individuals applying and receiving approval recently, would you consider Sheriff Boudreauxa to be a "shall-issue" or a "may-issue" sheriff?

He's very CCW-friendly. Shall-issue.
He spoke at a meeting of the Sportsmen's Association and said that if you have a clean record and aren't on drugs (illegal or anti-depressants) he would prefer you carried. I got my LTC in 10 weeks and that is only because they are processing so many apps now. Would have been closer to 6 weeks if it were 6 months ago. |

I just picked it up a short while ago and I can personally confirm that there are no longer any school restrictions on the permit. The section with restrictions was blanked out with white out and the lady told me that it's because it's up to the schools to decide now.

Be sure to encourage friends, family, shooting buddies, and coworkers who live in Tulare or other issuing counties to apply. Also be sure to CCW whenever you visit the Bay Area.

I've recently moved to Tulare County from Santa Barbara County (good luck getting an LTC there!) and plan on applying post haste.
Quick question though: Is there a minimum residency time before applying? I've actually had rental property here for 30 years, but just changed my residence address a couple of weeks ago. Edit: Tangent question: Sounds like Visalia Sportsmans Association is the best place to take the class? Are they the best shooting range in the Visalia area as well? I shoot mostly pistol, but break out the rifles once in a while as well. I prefer a place where I can move and shoot. Last edited by BenW; 06-04-2015 at 3:13 PM.. |

Rankin field in Tulare has a second pistol range that they allow holster drawing and moving while shooting if you have done your ccw class there. Im sure if you talk with them and explain that your a ccw holder they would let your practice on that range.
A friend of mine moved from San Diego to the area and the sheriffs office told him there was no waiting time to applied as long as he has a valid prof of residency. rankinfield.org is the ranges web address |

Just a heads-up to those of you who have a CCW in Tulare Co. already...
The School Campus restriction was lifted back in May I think. You can go to the office and get a new permit without the restriction printed on it. I did it yesterday and there was no charge. Their laminator was not working. |

I won't even add a "thumbs-up" symbol to this thread since their website still states they have a highly restrictive interpretation of GC.

Seems like I forgot to ask: without giving so much detail so as to ID you, can you tell us what your GC statement was like? Did you use mere "self-defense"/"personal protection" or something more? If more, what was that like?

I have talked to the sherrif (at a NRA dinner) he told me and my wife (under age at the time) to go apply no cause needed. I applied 3 months before my 21st and go approved and my license a month before my 21st. I am a service tech and part owner of my family's business so my good cause was a little more in depth than (self defense)

Verbatim, all I wrote was "Personal protection for myself and my family." That's more or less what my CCW instructor told us to put down on our applications. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Sorry to revive an older thread. I simply put "self-defense" for my GC statement and this was early 2014 time frame. Wait time from submission to actually picking up my permit was roughly 3 weeks.

So what is considered a clean record in Tulare Co? I have a DUI conviction 5 years ago and a misd battery conviction approximately 17 years ago. No drug offenses, no domestic abuse or stalking. Both convictions have been expunged. I am a registered gun owner for home protection. Do I have a chance or will it be a waste of time / money? Does anyone know of any CCW holders with a not-so-perfect record?

Still waiting. Turned in apps in July 16
@jcas74.
Not an expert but they might frown on the DUI. It's not a waste of money if they don't say no. You could call the TCSO in Porterville substation and talk to Tiffany. Shell be honest and up front with you. She handles all the CCW apps for the Southern county. My wife and I turned in our Tulare County apps in July and we are still waiting as of today 11/23/16. We turned in our Arizona apps in August and got our AZ CCW's in the mail in 2 months. You can apply for the AZ CCW by mail and it's good in all these states. Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming Last edited by Mestisoboy; 11-23-2016 at 10:59 AM.. |

On a brighter note, if you are renewing, my time line at the window was just under twenty minutes with the proper documentation-my current HSC, my soon to expire Tulare County CCW, a current CAL DL and a current vehicle registration-all of which (the HSC has no address) had my same current Tulare County address. In 'n out!

6 month wait in Tulare County. Approved today.
Wife and I submitted our apps in early July. We got the phone call this morning and we were approved! So the wait time right now is about 6months.
For the good cause statement, all we put was "personal defense". Sheriff Beoudreaux is a shall issue Sheriff. |

Hi guys,
Anyone have any idea on recent wait times for Tulare County? I was planning on getting my CCW this summer so I figured I'd start looking into it now. Just to clarify, I can start the application process with the Sheriff's Dept. to get that ball rolling while I take the CCW course. Is that correct? |

I recently went through the process of submitting my application on-line (3/23/18). An FYI for anyone who is renewing or applying for a new ccw you are required to do it on-line now. They don't allow you to print the application and walk it in anymore.
They told me the time line is about 2-3 months depending on your references. I am not sure how true that is but I know 2 out of my 3 references have received the stuff in the mail and have mailed it back. Just waiting on the third, from there though I am unsure how long it will take. As for the CCW course I took it at the range I signed up with as they offered it for free as part of a regular membership so I already uploaded a copy of that certificate into the tracker. So here is hoping! |

Tulare Sheriff has a few words for CCW holders.
https://abc30.com/5451614/ Tulare County Sheriff: Concealed weapons holders should 'exercise your rights' against active shooters Wednesday, August 7, 2019 10:42PM FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux took to Twitter Wednesday evening, to encourage concealed weapons carriers to "exercise" their rights following the recent mass shootings. Sheriff Boudreaux wrote, "I encourage all CCW holders in Tulare County to exercise your rights. Do so legally and only with a valid permit. Secure our communities and protect life by being able to defend ourselves against active shooters, threats to life and those who use guns for criminal behavior." — Mike Boudreaux (@MikeBoudreaux4) August 7, 2019 The sheriff's tweet sparked debate from commenters. Some questioned how concealed carried weapons (CCW) holders would be differentiated from a gunman in an active shooter situation by law enforcement or by fellow licensed carriers. Boudreaux responded, saying CCW holders have been taught how to interact with law enforcement and stressed the importance of CCW holders identifying themselves to other carriers in those situations. |
