Re: Home Invasion Getting Popular

We had that problem here in Corpus for a while- probably still do have the problem but I think the news has stopped running the stories. Home invasions were happening every couple of days and at about 6:30 AM for some strange reason. It is sad because now we come home and close our solid wood door a...

To Chamber or not to Chamber?

I think that this has been talked about in previous posts but I cannot remember where. I carry in my vehicle all the time and some out in public. I have thought through a few scenario's from time to time and one common concern keeps popping up. I do not keep a round chambered in either of my guns. I...

Would you shoot a minor?

Last night on the late local news there was a story of a robbery in a Dollar General store. They said that the thief was a 12 or 13 yr old boy with a gun. He demanded money from the register and I am not sure what happened after that. I immediately started wondering- If I were at this store and saw ...

Ok- that is very funny. :lol: I guess I was excited about getting my card and forgot the date.

Actual time line-
1. Sent app- Sept 24
2. E-mailed DPS on October 15- they respond to say that they recieved it that day.
3. Got plastic in the mail on November 16.

Sorry about the confusion.

Out of the waiting room!

I am finally out of the waiting room. I was told the DPS got my app on October 15 and today (September 16) I got my card in the mail. I actually sent it on Sept 24. One question- they got my birthdate wrong on my card- they missed it by one day. Is that an issue that I need to get corrected or just ...

Thanks for the feedback. I will try not to worry too much. I just have not read about this same thing from other posts. I have dealt with the state in other cases and it seems that they do not get in a hurry and I think they are under staffed as well.

I'm not sure if I need to be worried???

I completed an online app in September 2007 and DPS sent me all the stuff in the mail in about 4-5 days. I got everything together in the next few days and mailed it back to them. (I failed to mail is with a return notification.) :oops: I did not see any changes on the web site so after waiting for ...
