Concealed Weapons Permits
As a CCW holder, it is your responsibility to educate yourself on California's firearm laws. The information contained on this website is for your general knowledge and is a synopsis of the legislation-it is not meant to be a complete and thorough breakdown of SB 2.
In accordance with PC 26150(a), and subject to department procedures, residents of Sutter County may submit an application to the Sheriff's CCW Coordinator. Applications will be individually investigated. An applicant interview may be required as part of this investigation. Applicants should be reminded that all information disclosed in the application may be subject to public disclosure. Applicants are encouraged to read the application packet in its entirety. Pay special attention to the following sections: Section 5-CCW License Conditions and Restrictions, Section 6-Applicable California Penal Code Sections, Section 7-Agreement to Restriction and to Hold Harmless. The initial application process consists of a series of steps. These steps are defined in the instruction sheet available on this webpage. Application processing times vary.
The Sheriff may place a restriction on any license that the Sheriff deems warranted. The restriction/s may include the time, place, manner and circumstances under which the licensee may carry the weapon. The possession of a license to carry a concealed weapon is subject to revocation whenever deemed necessary by either the Sheriff or the California Attorney General's Office.
The possession of a license to carry a concealed weapon does not exempt any individual from criminal prosecution or civil liability, other than the act of carrying the specific firearm within the State of California.
The issuance of a license to carry a concealed weapon does not excuse or justify any behavior that might otherwise be a violation of any law pertaining to weapons.
You may apply by utilizing the current state application form. This form, as well as application instructions, is available on this webpage.
For questions not answered in the instructions, please contact scsorecords@co.sutter.ca.us or call our office at (530) 822-4393.
