Sheriff Weaver CCW Permit Notarized

So this is the first time i have had to renew my CCW permit and the paperwork states the document must be notarized. The "affidavit" states:

Quote:

I, <Name Here>, do hereby solemnly swear and affirm that I am and continue to be firearms qualified pursuant to my original training certificate and the specific criteria outlined in my initial application for a concealed weapon permit

My main question is this just more bullshit that Weaver makes Douglas county residents go through or if this is common practice for all counties? They will do it for a small fee at the sheriff's office though...or I can go to the bank, I just want to know if this is another Weaver thing or something all people have to go through.

Pretty sure I had to get something notarized with Arap cty.. but it had to be signed in their presence and they charged me a whopping $0.00 for the notarization. Pretty sure it's standard..

Ok I am glad to hear that, Weaver just seems to make things up as he sees fit so I wanted to see if this was one of those times or not.

Thanks for your reply.

Renewals and change of address both require a notarized document in Larimer County.

This is a new state-wide rule added by Hickenlooper to vex us further. Bastard.

In Arapahoe for renewals you need a notarized statement that the permittee remains qualified to the IAW the original criteria of their previous application (not a felon, lawfully allowed to own a firearm, etc etc, blah blah.)

The cost is nothing and they have you sign the statement right there and notarize it in the room where they take your application.

I dislike Hickenlooper as much as anyone else on this site but pretty sure this is not true. I had to have my first renewal notarized and that was many years ago.

Here in El Paso county we never had to get our CHL renewal notarized ... when I got the letter from the Sheriff's Office telling me it was time to renew they said that because of a new law signed by Gov Hick that the forms would now have to be notarized.

EDITED TO ADD

Here's the exact verbiage on the letter from the Sheriff.

Quote:

Recently we mailed out a reminder letter to Concealed handgun permit holders whose permits were about to expire. Due to a recent change in the Colorado CHP law, HB 14-1166, which was signed into effect on March 14, 2014 by the Governor, we are now enclosing an updated Concealed Handgun Permit Renewal Application; please destroy the previous application that was mailed to you and use the updated application instead. The new law now requires all renewal applications to be notarized.

Here is the amended statute, the capitalized text is what was added, the normal text was not changed.

Quote:

18-12-211. Renewal of permits.(1) (a) Within one hundred twenty days prior to expiration of a permit, the permittee may obtain a renewal form from the sheriff OF THE COUNTY OR CITY AND COUNTY IN WHICH THE PERMITTEE RESIDES OR FROM THE SHERIFF OF THE COUNTY OR CITY AND COUNTY IN WHICH THE PERMITTEE MAINTAINS A SECONDARY RESIDENCE OR OWNS OR LEASES REAL PROPERTY USED BY THE PERMITTEE IN A BUSINESS and renew the permit by submitting to the sheriff a completed renewal form, a notarized affidavit stating that the permittee remains qualified pursuant to the criteria specified in section 18-12-203 (1) (a) to (1) (g), and the required renewal fee not to exceed fifty dollars, as set by the sheriff pursuant to section 18-12-205 (5). The renewal form MUST meet the requirements specified in section 18-12-205 (1) for an application.

News to me. I just renewed in Arap Cty this week (Tuesday), and it took all of 30 minutes, and I walked out with my fresh permit in hand. I asked specifically about certification, and was told my original was good indefinitely, per the new/recent law changes.
Never any mention of any notary requirements.

But the wording in the permit/renewal application states " Do not sign application before your interview at the Sheriff’s Office. "
After you sign it in their presence, they notorize it.

Not saying you couldn't, nor apparently should you after reading the thread, but don't always assume your bank will notarize just anything.

Mine would not notarize my trust. I didn't say what kind of trust it was, nor did they ask. Just a blanket, "we don't notarize trusts. "

Sent from my subconscious mind.

Could very well be, SSB. That thought did vaguely cross my mind.

So was there some rash of people renewing CCWs under different names or with fake IDs or what not?

The whole notary thing is simply another annoyance for the sake of annoyance put there by people that want to ban CCW (along with gun ownership) in the first place.

I was gonna say, must be new, Jeffco didn't require notarized anything when I moved from Lakewood to Evergreen back in 2012.

I doubt it. You can't even throw a rock without danger of hitting a licensed notary.
