I'm out of the waiting Room!!!! I got my plastic Yesterday when I got home!. My picture looks stupid...I was wearing a hat, my hair stayed like this >> when I took it off. I don't care though...I swear I'm like a kid at Christmas.

Now, on to the no-joke task of carrying responsibly.

To those still waiting, be patient, your time will come. And since you have some time on your hands learn the law, ask for advice, and practice your aim.

Edit: FYI -- I submitted my application the third week of February

Congrats. I know it was a long wait.

Wonderful! I know you are glad the wait is over and we are proud for you!

Welcome aboard ScrapMetal. You are worth a lot on todays market & seem to be getting more in demand all the time.
We are glad to have you.

Glad you're excited! I was too when I recieved mine yesterday, too.

But now that excitment has died off since I'm waiting on my Form 1 and Form 4 from the ATF.

LOL - these are obviously not do in the order received!! I Call foul!!

I'm telling you - it's quite frustrating....

im on the (almost) same time line and im getting just a little

Rock on dude! Now you get to have some fun in some of the other sections of the forum.

I hope that I'll be joining you soon. I'm a March 08 filer also and I'm finding myself checking the DPS CHL web site twice a day now. (wow, I need to get a life!).

Congrats

Congratulations, and we expect a full report on your Wally Walk!

Haha, I still haven't figured out exactly what that means, but I'm guessing it is your first time to carry in public, possibly at the local Walmart (aka wallyworld) ????

All I have right now is a full sized PX4 Storm, and I don't even have a holster for that, so it will be a while. I'm hoping to get a Ruger LCP in the next couple of months and that will be my carry gun. I will probably get a holster and belt for the PX4 as some point though, I know lots of people carry them so I'm sure I can figure out how to do it without giving myself away.

ScrapMetal, welcome to the forum and congrats on the license.

You are correct, it is carrying your first time and going to Wal Mart. Here is a link to the official rules http://www.texasshooting.com/TexasCHL_F ... &sk=t&sd=a

Enjoy your new privileges!

Hey Scrap, congrats. I am still waiting on a PIN, I mailed my packet out on Apr 12th so I have a little waiting. WRT to Ruger LCP, I just bought two of them at the Houston gun show. Took one out to the range last Sunday and was impressed by its performance. It packs quite a kick but you figure it must weighing in at a little over 9 ounces. All I can tell you it to hang on to it. My wife liked it but hey, she likes me too

Good luck with your Wally Walk and can't wait to read about it. Be safe and have fun
