No quotes from DPS in this story, but the article states that From December through February, DPS received 136,000 License to Carry applications compared to just 57,000 over that period last year. http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2016/03/24/one- ... with-guns/

That probably includes some non-resident licenses, but basically 1 in 27 people in Texas have an LTC. :txflag:

About 1 in 19 that are age eligible. Over 27% of Texans are under 18, so throw most 18 to 20 year olds in as ineligible and it is definitely over 5% with a LTC.

Do I get a Gold Card license if mine is the 1 Millionth LTC issued?

License for life or something?

Or maybe a trip to RSD to see how the license are born?

I think you have to go to Austin to pick up the gold CHL Tiara and sash in a formal ceremony with news photographers and stuff.

Don't forget the gold plated badge you can proudly wear around your neck!

I guess I took the reply's differently. I saw the respondents trying to play along with your comment and trying to be funny. 99.999% of the people on this forum are polite and respectful and mean no harm or insult by their comments.

I'm somewhat confused as well. I know there was no intent to insult or belittle. I was playing along with the idea of getting special recognition for being the 1 millionth. :headscratch

I apologize if it was taken the wrong way. I agree this forum has been a real positive for me and an educational tool.
