Trying to get an appointment for DC to apply for CCW

[Epiphany]

Make your appointment online - it’s the only way to get one. I had a 1 month wait for the appointment (that was the soonest available) - but when I went in, there was no one else there for CCW.

Took 4 days to get approval…

Everyone there was helpful, albeit at government speeds.

My instructor was DC certified, so my same MD class touched on DC law and shot their requirements as well. I took it in the summer, and didn’t submit til 01/23 with no issues.

4 days is unbelievable! Congrats. Mine was almost 90.

Only problem with online appointments is the portal has been down for a few days.

MD training does NOT cover DC law, and the course of fire is different. Find someone that will do the DC law portion.

I didn't find out until after I was conditionally approved at the end of last year that I needed to take the DC class. I figured the DD214 would have been used in lieu of the training requirement (because they said to submit it), but it's time limited to leaving the military less than 2 years ago. I'm still trying to find time to take that class, but that ship may have sailed by now. It'll be easier to just avoid DC.
