How long does it take for a local PD to complete a back round check on you?  Or, do they forward your prints and info to the FBI and have them do it?

I'm thining it shouldn't take more than a few days.

My town did the same thing. Two week turn around. I assume my file was tossed in a pile for a week and six days. Then signed off. They left a copy of the "background check" results in my folder. Easy process. No phone call or interviews any of the times.

Trusts don't work for us here in CT in regards to SBR's dude.

Unless you had one in place prior to the new laws and transferred your "AW" in it.

he's an idiot then, they have no need to do this because the ATF will do it when processing the Form 1.  Many PDs don't know what they're doing and my local first selectmen did that to me back in 2010 for my can, held the process up for like 3 months.

yes they do if you had it pre 2013 which I am guessing you did not.

or, get a trust from Silencer Co then buy pre ban lower, put into trust and F1 that way.


however at least your LEO will actually sign off the form unlike many.

Thought there was a thread about this a while back.  Somebody called Middletown and asked if they could transfer pre bans in a trust and they were saying no?

I know seemed a little odd because ATF will do it anyway.  Local PD was being very cool and accomodating about the process.  

3 months, damn.  In reality it should only take a couple of days right?  Can't they preform an adequate check on the local level with out outsourcing it to the FBI?

There seems to be conflicting reports online of wether or not you can transfer a pre ban lower in a trust.

Some say you need a letter proving the lower was made prior to 9/13/94 and others say to call Diedre and she will do it for you based if the lower is on a list she uses to verify.

I would say to either call her or stop in and ask.

how reliable is her "list"?   Ct is a joke

You can transfer a pre ban in a trust. It must be registered as a post ban though like the rest of them. A few people here have done it from what I've read

No it doesn't take 8 to 12 weeks for the background check or for the suitability check for one's pistol permit application. How long it actually takes is dependent on the local issuing authority and if they follow or ignore the mandated statutory time frames. Some towns approve the application in less than 8 weeks, other towns like New Haven and Bridgeport can take upwards of 6 to 12 months to approve the application.

The statute Sec 29-28a sets the time frame at 8 weeks max but there are other time frame limits (see Sec 29-29) within that 8 weeks that the local issuing authority is supposed to but often doesn't follow. Others have claimed the actual fingerprint check that gets sent to the FBI is automated and supposedly only takes 24 to 48 hours. There is the following language in Sec 29-29; "The local authority may, in its discretion, issue a temporary state permit before a national criminal history records check relative to such applicant’s record has been received."

More information on the permit timelines:

CCDL Permit to Carry Time Mandates.pdf
CTCarry Permit Timeline

Per CTCarry:
"The Connecticut General Statutes prescribe a rather strict timeline for the pistol permit process. This timeline is dictated by and . The deadlines described in these statutes give your local issuing authority "5 days" from the date you submit your application with fingerprints until they must submit your fingerprints to the State Police Bureau of Identification (SPBI). Once your FBI report is received back from the SPBI, the local issuing authority has "one week" to issue an approval or denial.

The entire process is required to take no more than 8 weeks by statute.

For the record my permit during the rush only took about 2 months in Bridgeport. I don't know if that was my boyish good looks working their charm on the female investigator or me checking the status every week or so lol.

The electronic finger print machines come back in 15 minutes from the fbi according to the officer who did mine.

I believe he printed a set to send to the despppd
