Thanks for the nice welcome. I've been carrying for 10 years, so it's not my first rodeo, just my first Texas rodeo.jmra wrote:I remember how painful the waiting game was. But before you know it you will be applying for your renewal. Can't believe it's been 6 years since I left the "waiting room". Take the time to practice carrying in your home. Try out different holsters and different carry positions.Tao wrote:Initial/non-renewal application:

Oh, welcome to the forum.
I'll add to/edit my post with text and dates when something changes, just to give others a little better idea of exactly what to expect and when.
