Re: Noob here..."Hi" and a question

Thanks again, all.

One more question. It seems as though my schedule is clearing up and I may be able to take a CHL class tomorrow offered by a local LEO. As the class is tomorrow, should I still fill-out an online application?

Thanks all. For some reason, that scene from Indiana Jones where Jones just pulled out his pistol and shot the sword wielding dude. :smilelol5:

As for not carrying, why? :confused5
Well, my years of martial arts training should contribute considerably in a situation of "needs." j/k. Seriously, I do realize irrespective of my speed and training, I can't beat a bullet or a gang of idiots. I guess I'm just not quite ready to carry...yet. I'm sure I'll ease my way into it by doing a few selective-carry.

Thanks to everyone for your input.

Noob here..."Hi" and a question

Hi Y'all,

I am a pistol newbie from Fort Worth and, obviously, a CHL newbie. Hope everyone is doing well.

My question is whether I should apply my CHL online prior to attending the class. All of the CHL classes I am investigating do offer the paper packet. Nonetheless, should I still apply in advance via the online application? Does it speed up the process?

Thanks,

Ken

FWIW... I have a new Springfield XDM 9mm w/ 4.5 inch barrel and a few basic mods. I am also in the process of acquiring a CZ SP-01 Shadow Target. For HD, I use a Benelli Nova 12 ga. shotgun. I intend on developing my shooting skills to do IDPA and USPSA. Although I probably won't carry, I do want the option to do so.
