Re: LTC Experience: Day 1

Thanks for all the feedback! I definitely have to try out some of those holsters. Am I correct in assuming it's best to unload before entering a store if I want to test out some holsters? As for the pistol recommendations, there were a lot of fine suggestions. I've always wondered if price differenc...

LTC Experience: Day 1

Mods: My apologies if this is in the wrong place. Please move if necessary. After a long and arduous wait, I finally received my LTC, yesterday. Today, I decided to carry (IWB) my tiny Ruger 380 to break myself in to carrying daily. I'd love to carry my Beretta, but I don't have an appropriate holst...

Re: Late December applicants still waiting?

I checked the mail, and still no plastic.

Have we determined an average time after site change till the card arrives? It seems most of the ones I've seen were within a day or two.

Re: Late December applicants still waiting?

I logged on to check my status late last night, just after midnight, and saw no update. I logged on this morning, on my 92nd day of wait, about 7:45 and saw some glorious new options laid before me.

Today is day 91 for me. No website update or plastic yet. Fingers crossed for later this week (again, x10).

Re: Late December applicants still waiting?

I can't believe you still haven't seen any progress. Any new updates from your recent emails? After emailing/speaking with my state rep's office and emailing Gov Abbott, I got a call back from a manager at DPS on Wednesday (3/16). He told me they were pulling my app from the pile and would process ...

Re: Late December applicants still waiting?

I don't know if I believe my eyes, but the site has changed. Now, I have to update my address in a few weeks when I move. I think I'll wait till I have the card in my hand. Congrats! No change for me, yet. I can't believe you still haven't seen any progress. Any new updates from your recent emails?

Re: Late December applicants still waiting?

Early this morning I received a call from a manager at DPS. Evidently my call to my state rep and/or Gov Greg Abbott's office made the wheels start spinning. The DPS manager sounded like someone fairly high up that could make things happen. He said he'll be pulling my application from the stack and...

Re: Late December applicants still waiting?

What the deuce...I was hoping you would receive better news. On the bright side, at least it's being looked at...although it's not that bright of a side considering the wait. I wonder if calling your local rep got it out of no-man's- land and into background check. Did you happen to mention how lon...
