Course Requirements

To obtain a CCW License, you are required to complete a certified CCW course. In order to complete the course you must qualify with all the firearms you intend to list on your CCW license. There is a maximum of five weapons in Shasta County, three weapons in Siskiyou County, Trinity, Lassen and Tehama allowed on a CCW license. Modoc County allows 4. To qualify with your firearms you need to demonstrate adequate proficiency with each of your weapons.

Understand that Shasta County Sheriff’s Office is your only issuing agency in the County. Siskiyou County provides CCW permits for those living outside of a city municipality. If you live within the city limits of Yreka, Weed, Mount Shasta, Tulelake, or Etna, you would apply directly with that agency.

Weapons Requirements

The firearms listed on your CCW license must be the product of a recognized manufacturer and free from flaws. This means it also must be within tolerances determined by the manufacturer’s specifications and in good working order. As a result modifications to the weapons that would alter it from the manufacturer’s original settings are not recommended.
