Well I'm one of the newest "sheepdog"s. Been lurking a LONG while and finally stepped up. Anywho...
Applied in Franklink Co. last Wed (5/17/06) and was called Mon (5/22/06). Turn around of merely 3 business days. They don't let grass grow under their feet since I was called the day I dropped off the application to double check on my current address. The Sheriff's office apparently isn't aware that Columbus has grown into Delaware Co.
Got to carry in public last night for the first time and apparently didn't cause a stir.
I'm seeing a lot of reports of 3 days, on ccwhen.com (Don't forget to submit your time as well! ). What I don't get, is everyone I know, that lives in franklin, doesen't want to apply for their CHL there.
Everyone seems to think Franklin is horridly slow..... and unfriendly..... IDK why....
Heck, I went to the Delaware County Sheriff, and they took 2 weeks (in feb of this year)....
Either way, Congrats, and welcome!
Where's the best place to apply for your CHL?

The world is cold, but, bold men take action.
Guess I should have applied in Franklin. I live in Franklin, but chose Delaware because of better appointment availability. I have been waiting 24 days now. Go figure!
Franklin was the easy choice... not because of anything I've heard from others. Mainly because I'm working at a client in downtown Columbus and the Sheriff's office is only about a 5 minute drive from where I'm at.
I had a great experience with Delaware, and a decent one in Franklin.
Obtaining my temporary emergency license in Franklin county took 3 days, but it took 7 days to schedule an appointment - so 10 days. In Delaware, when getting my actual license, I told them my temp was quickly coming up on expiration and they got me the license in 2 days flat. I thought that was pretty impressive.
