Re: Trying to be patient
it depends how old you are. They calculate your age minus 21 (18 if you claim the veteran discount) and use that as a factor. The reason is if you waited 10 years before applying, you're in less of a hurry than someone who applied right away.

See. Apply early and they process quickly. Wait until you're 30 and it could take months.TexasAggies wrote:Took me 18 days.. and I'm only 21
I sincerely apologize to anybody I offended by suggesting the Second Amendment also applies to The People who don't work for the government.

Re: Trying to be patient
I cleaned out my closet last week and threw away a dozen ties way older than you. Damn, some of them were so wide they could be used as bibs.
If the 2nd admendment only applies to muskets and muzzle-loaders, then the 1st admentment must apply only to the spoken or printed word. Printing must be done on hand presses, news stories must be written in longhand, no keyboards or electric processes may be used.

Re: Trying to be patient
Congratulations! The wait for it to come in the mail once it updates to mail is the worst part though. Nothing to check five or six times each day. Hope your plastic shows up quickly!
