@FTLB
No, no offense taken here. I am glad that you posted your information as it helps keep people honest. As the other poster mentioned, that part was modified a little bit later to allow for conceal carry in church.
I like to be challenged or have my line of thinking challenged because it keeps me honest and makes me think about things differently (check my signature, it explains a lot). this is a safe place I can go to talk about stuff and make sure that my thinking on something is correct. That and that book is a lot to digest and I may have missed something.
I have learned a lot from the folks on the board and a lot of it has come as a result of a tug of war of ideas. Hey, if it wasnt for this site, I wouldnt think it was OK to put my gun in my underwear if I take a dump at walmart (dont worry, no pics of that )

Re: "Waiting Room"
Yea, I figured that that would be a nice touch with the plastic pistols.
It was great to finally be able to go out and not have to take my gun clip off and hide it under the van seat.
The first place I went was to a pizza place. I did get the impression that people were looking...although I was on the look out for the bad guys...like the christmas story were the kid is taking out bad bart (or whatever the thieves names were). and I, of course, offered to refill the families soda, etc. No one there could tell.
I carry my hi-point 9mm in a IWB holster (a little blackhawk $20 speacial from Bass pro) at 8 o'clock (the other side of 4 o'clock for your right handers) and as you can tell from the pictures at walmart, you cant see anything. I wore jeans and a t-shirt and the carry style ensured that I didnt print at all. The only issue that I would have is if I kneeled down, the butt of the gun would print, but wouldnt expose. Anyone that was staring at my rear end while I did that certainly wouldnt run me in
Me and the kids (mom decided to spend some quiet time at home) stayed at walmart for a good 2 hours and it was all good. We then went to family video and checked out some movies.
I carried all day saturday over to a friends bible study. He showed me his .22 conversion kit for his glock. He and his wife drooled over my license and said that they will need to get theirs.
Sunday, took the boys to church and carried. No incidents there either. I may need to rethink sitting all the way in the back near the exits because who is the first person some nutjob is going to whack????
I am sticking with the motto that you carry 24/7 or guess right, so I will be carrying everywhere.
Good luck to everyone that is waiting. The time is long, but well worth it!!!

Re: "Waiting Room"
My time in the waiting room will be over soon. I got the much sought after "Application Completed - license issued or certificate active" this morning when I logged in. I think this pretty good time (12/10 - 1/26 = 46 days). While I would have loved for it to have happened on "BIG O" day, I am good with it being a few days later. Now I need to tattoo C Heston's famous quote somewhere when "O's" administration start messing with my 2A rights.
