The chance of the average citizen getting a carry permit is nil.
The only folks who get them are people in actual demonstrable danger, which is not anybody posting here, and wannabee friends of local sheriffs. Who not infrequently tend to get indicted as they sell them off.
That’s the fact.
That’s certainly true in “may issue” states like California where the rich and politically connected only get them (Dianne Feinstein anyone?). But “shall issue” states who comprise the majority of states issue these permits to anyone who passes the test and do not have a felony criminal record (or domestic violence convictions, a history of mental health problems).
