That's pretty nice, I have big hands so I would have to check if I liked the grip.

Awesome Casey! My BG took about 18 days to complete(shorter than I thought). Hopefully your BG check is one of the faster ones! I got an update too! Can't wait to receive my final update in the mail :anamatedbanana

Good for you Giant. I think there are 3 or 4 of us here who are in the mail... I have convinced myself that tomorrow is the day for me. Don't ask me why, I just thought Thursday would be right. So that probably means I'll go to next week, lol

I just checked the website this morning (which is a daily ritual) and was surprised to see my BG check is complete and my status is now manufacturing pending. Basically, 2 business days for the BG check, which is way faster than I was expecting.

Great news Phat and ITX. 2 days is super fast. Mine took 19 just a few weeks ago and I am still on "mailed". It will be here before you know it.

WOOOOO HOOO!!! Just called in to check the status as I have not seen a change on the website for a few weeks... Spoke with a guy after about a 10 minute hold session. He said, you have been approved and you should have it in 1 - 2 weeks!!!!!! I was so excited I didn't get into the details if it had been printed or where it exactly was.. Just told him he made my day and got off the phone.

Good news Brotha! I have heard that when you call there are 3 people who can answer the phone. One sweet woman who gives you the "give it a week and call us back" line, one angry woman who will give you the "hey we have 60 days to get this done so don't bother us" line and the dude who has helped out everyone who he talks too. Glad you got the good news.

Thanks! Since you're in Grapevine, I bet you'll get yours any day now. I'm glad to see that the processing times for most of the September apps are going smoothly!

And congrats wacolivin! :cheers2:
