Sent away for a non resident permit to Pa on June 1, 2010, just got application back that I was rejected ( sent this to the Centre Sheriff). So they sent me paper work back to fill out. PA State Police instant check system challenge. So I filled it out & also gave them my UPIN number I got from the FBI too. anyone else heard of this? Never had a problem in delaware??

This is the first time I have ever heard of this, maybe you have the same name as someone that lives in PA who has a criminal background.

I'm thinking something like that because almost everytime I went to buy a gun in the last few years I had to wait the full week. This is why I got the UPIN Number ( this took around 5 months)... so there must be a crook running around out there with the same name. I will let you know what happens.

I hope your alter-ego isn't riding off your back. Check your credit history, and anything else that could be impacted.

PA dosent do as in depth a check as DE does, so you probably were denied same as NICS holds you up. Since it wasn't me and its always easy to see the bright side for somebody else, I'll say that I guess that proves they actually look at something

If you're one of the "lucky" folks that needs a UPIN, you can bet your arse that they're looking harder at you.

With the turn around time most non-residents receive their PA LTCF, i was convinced the sheriff DIDNT do any kind of checks...and just assumed since applicant had a permit from home state applicant was "good to go"....

I've heard all the sheriffs do up there is kinda like a nics check, if that's the truth than that could explain it. And moosie.....excuses, excuses, excuses!! Good luck with what ever is changing

The application I sent the State Police says they will respond in 1 week....nothing yet. I am squeaky clean, no debt of any kind & never in any trouble. I had a TOP SECRET Clearance in the military & had to keep everthing to myself for 10 yrs after leaving. I even locked my credit up a few years ago ( I wonder if that's it)so I don't get all those wonderful CC offers anymore. I will ask the sheriff why the hold up though. Being legal is a pia.

Hi all.
FYI, I had two CCWs, 5 years each from PA. befor moving down here to Delaware. I now have a DE. CCDW, and also an Out of state CCW from Florida, so when I wanted an out of state from PA. I sent them ( Centre Co. ) my two CCWs and a copy of the old PA. CCW. and I had my new CCW from PA. In less than a week, 6 days!!! no joke!!! So It pays to hold on to your old CCW cards. Hank.
