I got my plastic! I got my plastic! OH MY could they have a worse picture!

Hubby is still "manufacturing" so the good Italian in me is feeling guilty... a little - so excited and I don't have a IWB for my p-shooter!

37 day mail box to mail box! Amazing what you can learn in that time frame! Thanks everyone for keeping me entertained and educated... after CompVest's class may do a Target walk instead of Wally World though! :mrgreen:

I mailed my packet off on October 29th. A friend received her plastic six weeks after she sent in her paperwork. I'm hoping to get mine before Christmas and am eagerly trying to decide whether to carry my Glock 23 or S&W 642 as my first time to conceal carry. Good luck to everyone waiting and I'm joining all of you in our mutual impatience.

Does anyone know the difference between Manufacturing Pending and Manufacturing? :confused5
Does that mean they are actually making it now? :headscratch
