You had to pay a 100USD just to apply for a permit to carry a weapon?Yep, and it's non-refundable if anything in your background check isn't perfectly clean, or if the Police Chief doesn't like you... That's my Massachusetts!
Thanks.
I suppose it covers “the expense of processing”
Cost here in Ak is (wait for it) $94.25. I guess they think the odd nuber ‘proves’ how closely they track cost of applications.
Fortunatly, permits are not required for CCW in State.
Best of luck on the permit, it can make a difference.
