I am emailing back and forth with Sheriff Denny Nau trying to get our most up to date info. I am also trying to find out the actual total number of currently active LTCF holders in Centre County. Here is the most up to date info I have found so far:

"The number of Ohioans seeking permits to carry concealed handguns surged in the first three months of the year amid concerns that the newly elected president planned to strengthen gun-control laws.
"Probably the No. 1 reason we heard was people were afraid the new administration was going to put some real restrictions on firearm laws," said Claire Marvin, president of the New Albany Shooting Range, which offers training classes for those seeking concealed-carry licenses.

County sheriff's offices issued 16,323 licenses in the first quarter of the year, a 139 percent increase over the same period a year ago, according to statistics released this month by the Ohio attorney general's office.

It was the second straight quarter in which the number of licenses issued more than doubled from the previous year, said Jim Irvine, chairman of the Buckeye Firearms Association, a pro-gun lobbying group".
