Where are you located? I am almost in Denton... it's a good 3.5 hours from my house to the DPS office in Austin (4 if I drive slow). Mail usually takes 2 days to get to/from Austin. I bet we're getting them today... I'm going to leave work early to meet the mailman at the curb :-D

I am right on the edge of Mesquite and Dallas. If i go across the street from my apartments I am in Dallas. My mailman doesnt get to my apartments until after 5 most days and my section of mailboxes is the last ones he does :( ill be waiting until tonight. But i know i can count on an update from you! If you get your plastic today I can guarantee i get mine!

Mine finally went mailed some yesterday/today. Don't know when because my new high speed wireless internet connection (Tier One) went very intermittent Sunday and I had to dump them yesterday and go back to DSL.

Don't ask my opinion of them right now....^.. Anyway plastic should be here by Saturday.

There is just no Rhyme or Reason on how they process the applications once they are received or how they get sent out once they are approved.

I think the postman screwed him... but I think that will get fixed tomorrow.
I just completed my "preliminary" WW :). Not the full thing - I only had ball ammo in .45, so I needed to get some JHP. My other guns aren't really sized for carry, so I just took the kimber in unloaded and bought ammo @ walmart. So, I will have to revisit my wally walk tomorrow. I *did* load a clip and carry into chick-fil-a afterward though. I chose that one b/c there were two LEOs inside... I wanted a challenge :)
