Re: My first carry, also wally walk.

Big gun for first carry. Just wait til you see how easily a smaller gun carries. That mp will stay bedside Yup. M&P 9c is easy to conceal. Congratulations on your first public carry :tiphat: . Carrying will be a learning experience and you will probably wind up with a drawer full of holsters li...

Re: My first carry, also wally walk.

Thank you sir.

Forgot to add, my pants size is around a 34. I'm wearing a 36 due to weight loss. I guess that is cheating ;-)

Thanks for the encouragement and advice

My first carry, also wally walk.

So I got my plastic in the mail today. Got extremely excited and decided to head to Walmart, I needed some random stuff anyways. Noticed a few things and may have learnt a lesson or two. Basically a M&P 9 with a Trl-1 HL in a Rcs holster. It was a HD gun, thus the light. Also, I have a bad offha...

Re: TX DPS CHL & social security numbers

You can apply with out a SSN but you have to mail it in. It takes around 2 weeks after they receive your packet to start processing.(estimated time cheque mailed in to cashed)

It takes a long time with the "mail in" route, but it works.

Re: CHL eligibility question

The other packet was asking for the non-refundable fees, however it not include the amount I need to pay. Did you submit your original paperwork without the application fee ? Or is this some kind of surcharge? :headscratch :banghead: "rlol" I think you nailed it. I was wondering how the p...

Re: CHL eligibility question

Just a little update, got 2 packets/letters in the mail today. One asking for "a non-refundable fee" and the other asking for more paperwork. The paperwork packet came with a copy of CHL85 and CHL86, I suppose I'm to head down to the county court to get this filled. In my case Harris count...

Re: CHL eligibility question

Attended the class and got my CHL-100. Now the application process begins. It seems that because I do have an SSN, I can not do the online application. Thus, mailing would be my only option. The packet would be sent to the following address with tracking. Texas Department of Public Safety P O Box 40...

Hunter's education completed :mrgreen:

Am I safe to say that the changes for CHL on Sept 1 will not affect me?
