They mail it to you within 120 days per the law. The address on your HI ID must match your mailing. Info is on the LV Metro PD website. Click online services and CCW section. Then FAQ.
NV now accepts walk ins.
My last trip preCV, had a store employee on hold for an hour trying to do the background.

My understanding is NV only accepts NV-based training / testing affidavits for CCW. The training and test affidavit must be completed in the county in which you plan to apply for CCW. So, you have to be in NV at least for the qualification test and to be fingerprinted. That applies for initial and renewal permits.
Once you have the affidavit, you can apply in person in that county's Police Chief's or Sheriff's office. They will take your fingerprints and begin processing your application. Once ready, the permit will be mailed to you. Mine took about a month.
As a non-resident, you can choose which county to apply in as long as your training/test are in that county.
You also have the option of applying online or via the mail, but you still have to provide your electronic fingerprints in person. So for most, applying in person is the way to go. If you just don't have time for more than taking the class and test, you can apply online or by mail as long as you appear at the issuing department to pick your permit up when notified. You have to appear in person at least once during the process no matter what -- either when applying, or when picking up the permit.
For renewal, you have to retake the qualification test again in the same county where your permit was issued.
There's no provision for picking up your permit within a few days of applying. So, don't plan on being able to pick it up during the same visit as when you apply.
As a side bit of trivia related to other threads, in NV, if you don't have a concealed carry permit, you can't concealed carry anywhere, including your own property. Open is fine, just not concealed.
FYI.
