I foolishly let my CHL expire. NEVER again. The last time, in '96, i got it in about 35 days. This time it has been 91 days so far and still no plastic. I have never been arrested, I haven't had a traffic ticket for over 20 years, I spent 30 years in the military where I held a SECRET clearance and due to my job, had to be seen by a shrink every so often just to make sure I could still be trusted . I was screened and rescreened by the FBI numerous times because of my job. Now retired, I have lived in this county for 16 years.
Double J, you can call me a cry baby if you want to, But I think this process needs an adjustment. How stupid is it that Virtually anybody can carry a concealed gun in their car with ZERO checks and balances, but I can't be trusted until some little old lady in tennis shoes says I can. After all, it IS a SHALL ISSUE state, with a time limit that is routinely exceeded.
