MADISON COUNTY, Ala. — When you apply for a pistol permit (and get approved), you no longer pick it up at the Madison County Courthouse.

The Sheriff’s Administrative and Pistol Permit office has relocated to a new building located at 603 Fiber Street in Huntsville, next to the Madison County Jail. The relocation is in great part due to making the office easier for public access.

Fiber Street is located between Huntsville Police Headquarters and the Criminal Investigation Division off of Wheeler Ave. Access to Wheeler can be made one-half block south of University Drive off the Memorial Parkway service road or Church Street.

A new or renewal pistol permit can only be applied for online at madisoncountysheriffal.org.

The office is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
