Re: mailed but no plastic

Same timing weds night or first thing Thursday changed to mailed.

I guess my definition of mailED differs. The ED on the end was suppose to mean something.

I am in Houston, it is not like I live in Mayberry.

Oh well...

Re: 1st holster

I have read the forum, but does a good belt make that big a difference?

1st holster

Went and purchased a cheap holster while waiting for chl to arrive. I have a Ruger SR9C and have to say first time to strap on IWB holster and have to say it was rather uncomfortable. Not sure how you would wear it at a restaurant sitting down at a table. I am a big frame Guy and it seems okay just ...

mailed but no plastic

My status changed to mailed 1 week ago and still no plastic. I am sure it does not take 1 week to get an envelope in the mail.

That mailed status indicator can not be accurate.

Mailed Status

Can some one help with clarification for me...

My application changed to Mailed on Wednesday Feb 20 ...

I am correct that even though the status changed to Mailed on a Wednesday, DPS does not actually mail it out until Friday of each week? Sort like a batch mailing?

Thanks

status mailed

Checked the status today and it switched to mailed...

Some timelines have 2-3 days and others 5 or more. Wish it would show this weekend, but that is wishful thinking.


Not real sure what to expect.

mail status

Just checked and status is showing manufacturing.

If it follows the pattern, tomorrow it should change to mailed.

Then the pattern varies to plastic in hand, but some have posted 6 days
That sure sounds long for mail, but then again it's the government.

Re: 10 days

Based on some previous time lines, today I was hoping to get past the background check. No such luck. I think depression is setting in for a longer wait. I think apps sent in middle January are feeling the extended wait times. I am at 32 days from mailing in the application and still sitting in back...

10 days

It has been 10 days now with background under review. Getting harder to wait it out.

I guess 10 days under review is still inside the norm?
