Information on dealing with this type of situation my be found at
http://www.ctgunrights.com.
Go to the State Police Headquarters in Middletown, get fingerprinted pay all fees and then submit an application for the State Eligibility Certificate.
When your Eligibility Certificate is issued and in your possession, (
and they are very prompt), don’t waste a momentto submit a copy of the newly minted Eligibility Certificatealong with a copy of your recently taken fingerprints to the Stratford Police.
The issuance of an Eligibility Certificate is evidence that a Federal and State Criminal History Records Check was conducted prior to issuance of the Certificate,and that there are
NO disqualifying convictions which would prevent them from issuing a CT. Permit to Carry..
The
ONLY issue remaining will be whether or not the Stratford Police Chief will find you a “
SUITABLE” person.
This process will save time and resources for the Stratford P.D. and speed up the process of obtaining a decision regarding your application for a Temporary State Permit to Carry.
The Connecticut General Statutes are very clearis statingthe amount of time in which a local issuing authority must make a decision.
The Chief and Lt. Proudfoot in the Strafford P.D.Records Divisionseem to be very reasonable.
I have a call in to them regarding these facts as I write this post.
