Just across town. Ours were really only mailed one business day apart. I bet you get yours tomorrow.

I took an Academy Amble this evening, but I didn't have anyone with me to take pictures. I'll take a documented Wally Walk ASAP. Good luck everyone. Hang in there.

Posting my final timeline to preserve it once I change my signature:
07/23 - Online Application
07/28 - L1 Fingerprints
08/01 - Fingerprints received by DPS
08/13 - Class
08/15 - Hand delivered to DPS
08/24 - First update. BG check under review
08/26 - Manufacturing pending
08/27 - Manufacturing
08/30 - Mailed / Postmarked
08/31 - PLASTIC!!!

I'm surprised Cool Arrow and Tx_XDm are still listed as FP and BG under review. I wonder if mine made it through because I did fingerprints a few weeks ahead of time. My wife got hers today too. She had the same timeline as me except that she only did her fingerprints one week ahead.

pogiboi is in the same boat too. Barring any set backs we should all get ours around the same time. :waiting:

Usually about every 3-5 minutes! That's what I did! :lol:
