Mine says "Licence to carry concealed pistol"   so would LTCCP be the "correct abbreviation" ?  :dunno:

But state and Sheriffs refer to it as Concealed Pistol License, thus CPL.

Washington State
Concealed Pistol License

CPL?

Mine says "State of Washington License to carry concealed pistol".  I sell guns on a daily basis, and all the ones I see say the same thing.  :dunno:

The Washington State Department of Licensing calls it a CPL, and they are the agency that issues them.
Quote
Frequently asked questions: Concealed pistol license
When do I need to have a concealed pistol license?
By law, you must have a concealed pistol license (CPL) when you are:
Carrying a pistol concealed on your person.
Carrying or placing a loaded pistol in a vehicle.
Is my concealed pistol license good in other states?
Washington concealed pistol licenses are recognized only in states with concealed weapon reciprocity. Handguns must be carried in accordance with the law of the state you’re visiting. Be sure to check the laws of the other state before traveling there with your handgun.

How long does it take before I get my license?
If you’re a Washington State resident, it may take up to 30 days to complete the background check.

CPL is simply nomenclature for the term Concealed Pistol License.
I know of no place in the WAC where CPL is used in lieu of fully spelling it out.

And I have never understood why the the license differs in terminology than the law. 
Not that I care, really.   :chuckle:

Quick question regarding this.  I live in Enumclaw but just outside of town, so I'm not in city limits.  Where would I need to go to get mine?

CPL is how it has always been refered to. Pulled mine out and it reads: State of Washington License to carry concealed pistol.
