Went to Reading this morning, after sending renewal papers in a couple of weeks ago.  90 min ride, less than 10 min in-out.

Just went to Berks's sheriff's web site (https://berkspaso.permitium.com/ccw/start) and saw this:



ATTENTION APPLICANTS
Please note that you must be a current resident of Berks County in order to apply for, (or renew), a License to Carry.  All out of County applications will be denied by our staff. 




So, looks like York is my only option? . Anyone have any other advice?

The "resident of Berks County" pertains to PA residents. PA residents are required to apply in their home county for an LTCF.  My understanding is that out of staters are still processed in Berks County.

Just FYI, I applied for my PA non-resident permit two weeks ago.  Today in the mail I received my check and application returned with a letter from Sheriff Eric Weaknecht stating:

"Unfortunately, and until further notice, the Berks County Sheriff's Office is no longer accepting out-of-state applications as we need to prioritize application and renewal requests from residents of Berks County.

We hope to again open applications to our out-of-state neighbors in the near future."

So, in spite of the fact that PA. has a non-resident concealed carry permit, it allows the county sheriff to pick and choose if they want to follow that law. Sounds like PA. is getting more and more Liberal/Left all the time.

That is a screwy thing about PA.  The legislature is in control of the R's, but there seem to too may Rino's, so Wolf gets what ever he wants.

Anyone done the PA application recently? Trying to figure out which township will be the quickest/least amount of trips there.
