Hang in there, dooey99. I see you got your e-mail confirmation on May 10 ... for many of us, the next update has come about five weeks after that initial confirmation, which in your case would be somewhere around June 14 or 15. Since the 15th falls on Saturday, then perhaps Monday will bring an update for you. Good luck--I'm sure it will show up soon!
Thanks for the congrats. Congrats to all that got theirs today.

Based on other stories and my own experience looks like you will have it at the end of June. Ours showed "mailed" on 6/7 and we received them today (6/13). However, Our status for 45 days was that DPS was waiting on all documents. At the 45 Day mark is when they started background checks and finished 21 days later. Good luck - hope you get it sooner than that.

Mailed doc's 4/1
Changed to mailed status 6/6
Postmarked 6/11

Sounds like from others experiences, "mailed" means it will be mailed the following week.

Re:""WOO HOO, shows Mailed today, so should have it in the next 4-5 days based on it probably sitting in their outgoing box for 2-3 days before it actually does mail.    I ordered a holster from crossbreed but they have been taking 2-3 months to ship, so I ordered something else to hold me over last night in anticipation of getting plastic next week

Infedex,
I bought a CrossBreed back around the same time I started my paperwork for my chl in hopes they would arrive at the same time. :shock:
My chl has been here for two weeks and no CrossBreed. Website says 8 weeks, its been 10. :confused5
Bought a remora LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. Just bought another Remora for my SP2022 today. Bet it arrives before my CrossBreed.

I went to the crossbreed website, it said they were currently building and shipping out orders from March 26th I believe, so depending on when you ordered, you may get it soon. I may need to make a trip to Academy if my plastic shows up this weekend or early next week, ordered something from Amazon to tide me over, but it was fulfilled by someone else, and it may take 1-2 weeks it said. Hoping it's faster. May have to take the wally walk with it in my pocket. "rlol"

Foxx Holsters. About $30 cheaper than Crossbreed and very very good. You can buy them directly off their site. Or via Amazon.

I also ordered a CrossBreed, but I was very late getting it ordered--June 3. Looks like I'll be waiting for it till about mid-August. Oh, well ...
