In CT, from the time I took the required pistol permit class to getting the permit was about 4 months. This included processing the rather extensive applications, getting fingerprinted, picture taken, background checks, driving to and from the police station and the DPS building. There were many fees along the way. Plan to pay around 200 dollars including the class.
After that, I got a non-resident PA permit to carry firearms which only cost 26 dollars, only took about 2 hours to make some photocopies and mail it in, and I received the permit in the mail about 2-3 weeks later.
Both of these are good for five years.
For a long gun in CT there is a 2 week waiting period unless you have a pistol permit or hunting license.
PA is definitely more gun friendly than CT. I can think of a lot worse places to go then CT though.
