Re: january apps

Just checked the DPS website.
'Background check under review'.
Mailed my docs in on 1-16.
Took 16 days from mailing it in to status change.

Meanwhile, the search for ammo continues.
No trips to the range until the shelves get restocked
And EVERYWHERE around here they are bare.

Re: january apps

I submitted paperwork via snail mail on January 16, and have seen no change in status yet.
I did the application online, then fingerprints, then the class. I did not get passport photos taken, the instructor in class said it was okay to use our drivers license photo, just write it on the application beside the passport photo spot. Having the same photo on drivers license and chl is a good thing, he said.
While waiting I have been trying to train myself to take notice of signs- 51%, 30.06, etc and also to get comfortable carrying a pistol around concealed in my waistband (at home, of course). Trying out different holsters, etc. Turns out its not that easy to conceal a weapon wearing my usual jeans and shirt....last thing I want is to be reaching for a box of cereal in Target and have some kid yell "gun!" because my shirt is riding up....
For me, having a few weeks to work out the particulars is a good thing, although, like the rest of you, I can't wait to get that card in my hand.
