Holy s**t you guys.
So I called LVMPD Concealed Weapons Detail at 702-828-3996. I asked what I had to do to obtain a concealed weapons permit specifically for a knife with a blade over 3" because NRS 202.350, CCC 12.04.180, and LVMC 10.68.020 all say the sheriff (or his "designee") can give you one. They told me to hold because they do not issue permits for knives. After holding for 5 mins or so, they come back and say the same thing again, "We don't issue permits to carry knives concealed". Then I was transferred and put on hold again. A lady came on and I explained again what I was trying to do, she said the same thing "We don't issue permits for knives". She gave me the number for the Sheriffs Office. I called the Sheriffs Office and explained again what I was trying to do, and they said "I haven't heard of this before... We don't issue permits for knives. Let me transfer you". So, I was put on hold again and transferred to the SAME PLACE I HAD CALLED THE FIRST TIME. I was talkin to the same lady again and she said she'd be right back, so I was put on hold. After 6 or 7 minutes she comes back and says "A permit was issued a loooong time ago through the ATF. You may want to call them". I was absolutely floored... why the hell would the ATF issue a concealed knife permit? So I asked for the ATF's phone number (just incase it had an extension or something. I already had their number), they of course... do not know the ATF's phone number. So I called the ATF... the lady was like "Why would we issue a permit for KNIVES?", I told her "I have NO idea, it's a Nevada, County, and Municipal thing". I told her I was just getting the run around and didn't know what to do, she suggested I just go to a police sub station and try to find out more info in person. She was very nice and seemed just as confused as I was with Metro and the Sheriff.
Sooooo... One of these days i'll head down to the PD and see what they say about it.
Jesus.
