Around 600? three places i go religiously (guns inc, oakwood trading post, and b&j) will almost 100% stock this. itll be $525 without night sights and $625 with. Originally when i bought mine i went to Zach’s first. they wanted $585 and couldnt even get it. they said their suppliers didnt even have any at the time. i drove to b&j and they had dozens in stock. > [@5/6/08 LANCASTER tonight!](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/5-6-08-lancaster-tonight/47990/7): > > Alright maybe im really fucking stupid, but trying to get everything together to submit for my permit. > > The wording for the submitting process seems absolutely retarded to me > > Once the application is filled out, and I contact my references to fill out my character reference sheets and they mail it in, or can I have them just give it back to me and I can bring them all with me? > > Do I then go down to the sheriffs office to be fingerprinted and have the application signed and finished and then mail it to the judge with my letter? > > Maybe im having one of my days, but the instructions jump back and forth it seems. what county? some of adam’s answers are correct some a little off. this is for schenectady county. get your application packet, have four references fill them out and mail them. make sure you know who is doing this. ive heard of people having their reference say no to the “should applicant have a pistol permit” for personal believes or because the applicant has children yada yada yada. make sure who you give it to is going to say yes and not hold you back from getting your permit. if you live with a relative you can use one relative. fill out the four copys of application with pistol permit with photos. i just used pass port photos from like cvs. you must put $ down on the gun because the gun info must be on your application. this will be the first gun that goes on your permit if and when approved. DO NOT wait for the sheriffs office to call you because they wont. call them and say are my references in? if no wait a week and try again. then you go get finger printed at the available times (just show up, no appointments) bring your money order and application and letter to the judge. they fingerprint you and then they take your application and wait for background check then forward it to the judge’s office. youll get a letter to schedule an appointment with the judge. its just an interview he talks a small amount about gun safety and his expectations. then if things work out they will call you or send you an other letter that your permit is ready to be picked up. if theres any specifics let me know. basically you need a reciept and serial number of a gun by the day you get finger printed. because the info goes on your app. you bring your app with you to get finger printed once you know the references are all there. just saw your in schenectady. your lucky. by far prob the best clerks. we can get amendments the same day and dont have to wait to add a gun that you buy. answer all sorts of questions and very helpful. heres some links for you.
