Congrats, Grungir!

Congrats, Flylow and Grungir!

Congrats to all of us in the April class! It looks like things are finally moving for everyone. We had the unfortunate timing of submitting our apps right when the FBI was busy with census workers, but we're almost all through it now! Now that the background check is approved, it should be smooth sailing for you last few.

Thanks in large part to the information provided on this board, there will be lots more well educated, well armed upstanding citizens on the streets of Texas soon.

PLASTIC! My husband ran home at lunch and both of us received our plastic today.



We apparently also received someone else's plastic - a gentleman in Garland's was apparently caught on ours and delivered to us in error (my husband just texted me, so I'm not sure if it was inside our envelope or caught on the outside). I will be forwarding his to him from Dallas tomorrow, so he should have it by Wednesday...

Congrats all - looks like a good night for a lot of us!

Enjoy the shopping

My wife and I bought 2 "BioBox" - none for our nightstands as we have no children, but 1 for each car.
quick and easy fingerprint swipe and they are open.

One of my co-workers (with kids) has 1 for him and 1 for his wife for their nightstands and they love them.

Doesn't matter to me who you buy from, just showing you one on EBAY http://cgi.ebay.com/BIOBOX-BIOMETRICS-F ... 45f2fd2525
If you get this type, do not pay more than about $120 for each. If you go to Amazon or other sites, they are normally about $180+

I looked at a BioBox at The Bullet Trap on Monday - thought it was very cool but I think it was like $240 up there. Thanks for the pricing tip. They did have a good sale on guns at the Bullet Trap - my husband picked up a Springfield XD 40 for $360.

Both my and my husband's statuses changed to mailed today - all green baby! Time to shop for the obigatory Hawaiian shirts and start stalking the mailbox.

Congrats!

So unfair - they just don't process them in order. I submitted my online app a day or two before my husband but his PIN came a day before mine. If his license gets here first I will not be a happy camper.

Congrats on the plastic!

But congrats anyway, Rocketexas!

Good day for plastic - congrats to all who have received! I hope you will still stop by the Waiting Room from time to time and share our pain.

Congrats on the update, RFB!

Flylow, I'll be watching for that parade...

Hey - not to rain on anyone's parade, but I just realized Monday is a holiday. No mail, no progress on the apps of those of us still waiting for our background check to be completed...

Fire1141, did your status skip manufacturing and go right to mailed from manufacturing pending?
