I've about had it.... Anyone have any suggestions for bucking the system? :totap:

I don't think the writers of the constitution had in mind that our government would have this ability to prevent/delay the law abiding citizens from having a means of personal protection.

I finally broke down and called them today. I was told that they are just now entering applications from mid March into the system. I was also told that very few, if any applications are going through in under 90 days.

Good Lord!!! That explains part of the delay. I require higher qualifications than that to drive a parts truck for me. That's not a bad gig though, for a kid with not much more than a GED/High school diploma at 18 years old.

yea, reluctantly i just called them,and they said that it was been issued, it won't go in the mail until tomorrow, and that the website is just behind on the updates. I then asked her point blank. "so you are sure that my license has been issued and it will go out tomorrow?" Then she said yes. I said AWESOME. she laughed. I'm sure yours is coming up next. today is day 94 for me.
