Surprised by the number of new members

[ODBrunizz]

Hello All,

I'm new to CC and recently got my DE permit.  I just submitted my PA app and I'm waiting on that as well.  I'm going to explore the site and see what you're all talking about, but I was hoping you could clue me in on some key pieces for what and what not to do while carrying.

I am in NCC and I enjoy hunting, fishing, and hiking, as well as Volunteering in Wilmington (to give you a background of where I might carry).  I realize fully the responsibility I hold while carrying so I want to make sure at least the basic tips or places to look regarding laws are followed.  I am under the impression I can't conceal while hunting, and I have heard there are restrictions on parkland as well.

I look forward to becoming a part of a like-minded community.

Thank you!

Welcome to the group!!  Where did you apply for your PA that you have to wait for it? Lancaster is in and out in under 15 minutes.

This is a great forum with a good deal of information.  Welcome!

Do NOT keep feeling for it.  It IS there.  If not, you would have heard it hit the floor!  .02

And, WELCOME!

Welcome aboard and why the wait in PA as stated by 29thInfantry it should be in and out unless you had issues.

Thank you for the heads up.  I did Delaware county.  Unfortunately I hear they do make you wait the full 45 days but I was being cheap and did it because it was only $20 lol

Thank you as well.  That one hasn't been as big an issue because my current holster is uncomfortable.  I KNOW it's there...  I've got a few more being shipped so I can try them as well.  Actually my revolver is the most comfortable so I am carrying that mostly for the time being.

Delaware County takes 3-4 weeks. Hopefully not 45 days.

Berks, Bucks, or Lancaster Co. in and out in 20 minutes....  Well worth the drive.
