This is the genuine article, slipped out by a DOJ insider.
Print this baby on any decent laser printer or GOOD inkjet, and you'll have a genuine, original form.
It requires the Adobe Acrobat free reader, linked below.
7/15/02: HEY, YOU CAN TYPE OUT ALL YOUR STUFF RIGHT INTO THIS FORM, IF YOU HAVE ACROBAT 4.0 OR BETTER, then print it, sign it, hand it in. It even uses a different font for your bits versus the form text. I didn't even know you could DO that with Acrobat, it's really cool :). Bad top cops everywhere will HATE it :).
HOW TO USE THIS FORM:
Complete sections 1 through 5, and turn it in at your Police Department or Sheriff's office.
Get a receipt from whoever you give it to :).
They are allowed to charge up to 20% of their local agency fee ($20, which is 20% of $100 which is the max) as a non-refundable application processing fee. They might want you to pay for fingerprinting; max fee is $25 or the normal fee they usually charge, whichever is lower. See also Penal Code 12054 and "Section 7" for info on fees.
If the fees are higher, or they won't take the application, drop me a line: jmarch@prodigy.net
The only reason a police department could legitimately give for refusing to take the application is if the town isn't incorporated (therefore they're not allowed to issue) or they're a "contract police agency" under the Sheriff's office or a neighboring town in which case they can send you to that other agency, or in cases where a town has "walked away from the CCW process" and dumped it (in it's entirety) on the Sheriff. Sheriffs MUST take your application.
