Calhoun concealed carry license Times?

[gunlover]

Well its about that time for me. I have to go get my concealed carry license renewed, anything changed in the last 5 years? anyone know the turn around to get your license in your hand?

I'm assuming you are talking about getting a Georgia Weapons Carry License in Gordon County, Georgia? Since Calhoun, GA is in that county...........right?

It's hard to believe that in this day and age a GA Probate Court would not have a public use website, but in this case it seems to be true.

The last reported application for a GWCL on GeorgiaPacking.org claimed to have taken 9 days to issue the permit.

This should be a renewal for you, so you should not have to pay to have the fingerprinting done again. Should cost around $35.00

Really? Less for renewal? Best news I've heard all day. Cobb County here. It took me about 10 days last time. Renewing next summer.
