Answer
Jason,

Thanks for  asking, It sounds like you need legal help to get through this maze of rules & regulations here. I know that handguns have more strict guidelines in some states. Whatever charge is preventing your purchase of a pistol needs to be known and then you can seek legal help to get it removed by pardon or to expunge your record. Before you get a CCW you need your handguns rights restored.

Best regards,
