Obtaining a Pennsylvania Concealed Weapon License

The process for obtaining a concealed carry license in Pennsylvania is excellent due to the fact that the process is very thorough in making sure that licenses are not granted to people that may be irresponsible or pose a danger to others (minors, convicted felons, domestic abusers, etc.) while making it very simple for trustworthy, law-abiding people to obtain one quickly and cheaply.

Pennsylvania CCL's are available to both residents and non-residents and are valid for 5 years. For residents, the applications are handled by their county sheriff's office, with the exception of Philadelphia where they are handled by the Gun Permits & Tracking Unit of the Philadelphia Police Department. It should be noted that licenses issued by one county must be honored by all counties including Philadelphia regardless of rumors to the contrary.
