Best place to go in PA for the PA permit??

[Cbmarine]

I filled out my App before I went up.  Lancaster, was in and out in 15 mins.  Not sure about Saturdays though.  De Drivers License and De CCDW.

Happen to have a link in order to download / print the app out so I can fill it out early?  And all you need is DE DL and DE CCDW (and the moolah of course)?  No finger prints, ad in paper, etc like DE? 

Thanks....

Need to fill out the License to Carry Instructions also.
Let's rent a bus! And we can all go together

Need to fill out the License to Carry Instructions also.

This form is not legally required.  The app can only be one page.

Please explain "not legally required". The context of my reply was the Lancaster process.  In the box toward the bottom of the Lancaster Sheriff's page http://lancasterpasheriff.org/sheriffs/cwp/view.asp?a=3&q=620126&sheriffsNav=, it says "(Must fill out both)" referring to the PA License To Carry Form and the License To Carry Instructions.  His show-his rules. York sheriff requires a double-sided app not on two sheets. Sheriff Reese doesn't appear to ask for double-sided but @mrjam2jab's assertion is undoubted correct.  I'll print out my form two-sided - good advice, thanks.

Not the way it should be.  They should be following the rules as passed.

The link I gave above in #17 is both sides of the application.  When printing, these should be on one piece of paper.  For the Lancaster Sheriff to "require" a 2nd page in ADDITION to the application is not legal.

18 Pa.C.S. § 6109. Licenses.

(c) Form of application and content.--The application for a license to carry a firearm shall be

Police. The form may contain provisions, not exceeding one page, to assure compliance with this

sheriff, or his designee, or, in the case of first class cities, the chief or head of the police department,
or his designee, to inspect only those records or documents relevant to information required for this
