Which County Most CCW Friendly (out of 5 counties listed)
Thinking about moving and want the hive's opinion on which of the following California Counties is the most CCW friendly.
I am good to go in most States with my non-resident permits but feel naked at home in California.

My wifey and I just renewed our permits again in Fresno County. The new online system is super easy to use. We completed the renewals online Saturday and we both got our approval notifications this morning.
Sheriff Mims is VERY pro 2A. Check her letter to Biden...

I got my Stanislaus County permit before their new online automated system came online so I can't say how long it is now but it is much better then it was a few years ago. My renewal was done online, notified two weeks later I was approved, took my class, then went in and turned in my certificate and picked up my new permit in 10 min. Everyone is pretty much guaranteed a permit if you aren't a prohibited person. But, if Monterey County is on your list I think I might like living there more then Modesto.

The only problem with Stanislaus is getting an appointment to drop off your application. Time from application submission to permit was approximately 4 to 6 weeks when I originally applied and 2 to 3 for renewal. YMMV.

Fresno before online application took me 4 moths but that was several years ago. My last renewal was approved in less than 24 hours after I submitted the required info online.

Thank you everyone for offering your input. Looks like Fresno is a great county for CCW. I looked at the online application process and oh my gosh what a breeze to go through it. I’m not ruling out any other counties at this point but Fresno looks very good. :thumb:

That is FUD. If that's the case then I know 30% of them. LOL

I got my CCW in Monterey County last year. I was surprised at the speed of the process. It took me roughly 4 months. The online application process was easy and straightforward. I know nearly a dozen other Monterey CCW holders and they have all had varying results. Some have been done as quickly as mine, and others have taken over a year.

I would put Monterey County in the "Friggin' Unfriendly" category.

Out of this list, I would go with Fresno. That being said, it might behoove you to consider Madera County. There are new homes 10 minutes from Fresno. Madera has almost no restrictions that are not required by the state and I believe it is no limit to the number of guns you can put on your permit.
That said, there is some outdated information about Stanislaus here. They now use an online application and the whole process is down to less than 3 months. A few years back it was almost a 2 year wait. Downsides to Stanislaus: There is a 3 gun limit, you cannot carry at work, and the training classes are relatively expensive (only about 5 trainers on the list)

Can you elaborate on “you cannot carry at work?” I will be moving to Modesto in the near future. I am self-employed. Are you saying I can’t carry while on the clock?

I have a "real" job in addition to my business. Mine says I cannot carry during the course of employment at my "real" job.

JDoe, at a certain point you should change the focus to other characteristics of the county you move to, like crime rates, amount of gang activity, etc, all the while keeping in mind that any of these characteristics can change with time (and mass immigration....)
Slightly OT: anyone know how long Fresno Co has been pro-CCW? Was it that way prior to Mims taking office in 2006?
