CCW license question
Would a conviction of aggravated menacing 8 years disqualify you from getting a CCW license? Or would you be ok because it happened more than 3 years ago? Having a hard time interpreting the questions you are asked on the application. It sounds like you would be disqualified. Thanks

Re: CCW license question
Aggravated Menacing appears to be considered 'a crime of violence' and is at minimum a 1st degree misdemeanor.
As such, it falls into the chasm between Section III questions #8 and #9.
Regarding a 'misdemeanor crime of violence', Question #8 wants a 'Yes' answer in your scenario (Have you ever...) but Question #9 would allow a 'No' answer (...within three years...).
Was this a felony instead of a misdemeanor? Also, was this conviction as a juvenile or an adult?
If adult & felony, I would recommend contacting a gun lawyer.
Otherwise, at a minimum, I would ask a couple different Sheriffs how they would process the application...but I still might contact a gun lawyer.

Re: CCW license question
Thanks for replying. It was a misdemeanor 1st degree as an adult, no felony. I've emailed a few people and even the state attorney asking if this offense would disqualify me getting a CCW and I haven't had a reply from anyone. Also thanks for the recommendation for the attorney.
