not familiar with the saying..?

yeah, I was wondering about the wait time for AD was too. It doesn't make sense to me at all.. we go through a background check before we can get in the military. check. most of us get some type of clearance. check. and buying any type of firearm we get screened again. check. that's a minimum of 3 BG checks and they want to do another one for the CHL? no wonder we have no more money. :banghead:

I guess we can't be too safe with all the BG checks.. look at the looney at Fort Hood. (RIP our fallen Brothers and Sisters :patriot: )

I'm just happy that Texas is a "shall issue" state and I can exercise my right as an American Citizen.. My homestate is full of love, peace, happiness, and toyota prii. "rlol"

Hope that stuff doesnt slow it down, of course i always wish they would just look at JPAS and see that i have a Secret Clearance active, but wish in one hand....
i'm active duty as well. it didn't take any longer or shorter than most of the people here in the october class. you should be fine.

oh btw,

GO NAVY! BEAT ARMY! :patriot:

bernie-attorney wrote:I'm not sure of eric's exact dates, but I'm in the same ballpark as he and noosh:

Here's my chrono so far:
Online Application 9/1/11
Class Completed 10/1/11
Packet Mailed 10/2/11
Fingerprints Taken 10/6/11
Fingerprints: Complete 10/12/11
Background Completed: 10/18/11
Manufacturing Pending (as of 10/19/11)

So, for all you others, about two weeks after the later of 'packet' or 'fingerprints.' I'm not sure it would have affected the timing if I'd done the fingerprints before I took the course and mailed the packet, but my guess is that that would have sped things up. I imagine that the background check flows solely from the fingerprinting.

here's my chrono:
26SEP - Online Application
30SEP - Fingerprints
01OCT - Class
03OCT - Mailed Packet
12OCT - DPS waiting for material
13OCT - Background Check: Under review
16OCT - Background Check: Completed
17OCT - Manufacturing Pending
18OCT - Manufactured
19OCT - Mailed

I'm assuming it only takes a few days to manufacture.. yours might actually ship late this week or early next week! i read on the september board that someone got theirs mailed on on a saturday.
like everyone says.. there is no rhyme or reason behind it!

the fingerprint/backgorund correlation actually makes sense. i wonder if that is the deciding factor? :confused5

When did DPS receive your info. I am still waiting for up date on mine. My paper work got in DPS hands on 10/06/11. I hope there is a up date tomorrow.
i mailed it off on 03OCT - i forgot to get it tracked and delivery conformation because i was super excited to get it mailed off (good thing it didn't get lost with all my personal information) so idk when it actually got there, but i'm assuming 2 days? anyways, i checked my status right when I woke up today at 0830 and it said:
Application : Received
Fingerprints : Complete
Affidavits : Received
DL or ID : Valid
Citizenship : Received
Passport photo holder : Received
Photo : Received
Proof of Classroom training : Received
Proof of Proficiency training : Received
Proof of Special Condition : Received
Fee : Received
Background Check : Under review
Concealed Handgun License : Print pending completion of application review

so if i mailed mine off on the 3rd and we assume it took 2 days to get there (the 5th)... yours got there the 6th... hopefully yours will be updated tomorrow!
