Chapter 724 of the Iowa Code authorizes the commissioner of the Iowa Department of Public Safety to provide forms for use by sheriffs for acquiring handguns or for carrying weapons. The forms, procedures and training requirements are further defined in
Administrative Rules, 661, Chapter 4. Although these forms are available for downloading from this site, they are primarily being provided for informational purposes.
Iowa residents applying for permits to acquire pistols or revolvers or for permits to carry weapons must check with their respective sheriff's office for the application procedure for that county. Sheriffs may elect to include or not include the use of these forms in their application process.
