You pay a fee, they run a check on you, and if everything is hunky dory, they issue you the permit.
And yes, with a permit I can carry it anywhere in my state that doesn't specifically restrict guns (court house, schools, airports, etc.)

Not only that, but most states have reciprocity in issuing CCWs. So, if you get a permit to carry, say in Florida, it could be good in other states as well. I believe you only need to get a CCW in 4 specific states and then you are good in all states that allow for CCW permits
