OH YEH!!! :woohoo

After 7 weeks of waiting for the background check to complete, the DPS website shows it's complete with manufacturing pending. And that's from the first date the site was updated to reflect my status. I mailed my package on June 20th which is 9 weeks of total wait time.

Ok, not really total time, but waiting for that darned background check has been crazy. It was hard watching people receive plastic who mailed their package around the time, or after, I mailed my package and I'm not even out of background check.

Again, clean record (other than a few ticket in my past), very high security clearance (just reinvestigated last year), and previous CHLs in other states and my background check still took a bit longer then a lot of folks on this forum.

Hopefully the plastic will arrive soon.
