Probably in hand, if there are no hiccups, in 3 more weeks.

Hmmm... Three more weeks. Bummer. Tango Mike for the info Teamless.

In an unrelated story...

Back a few years and a few states ago, I went down to the police station in my hometown on my 21st birthday with my military ID. Walked out 45 minutes later with my first carry license. Did a photo, got finger printed, ran a background check, and laminated the license all in 45 minutes. The paperwork literally consisted of me filling out my name and SSN, and signing to acknowledge I was federally authorized to carry/own a firearm... that's it! 25 bucks (just to cover the processing of the card), six or eight years. No class. No silly fees (taxes). Ah, those were the days. For all of Pennsylvania's political shortcomings, they certainly got the carry license right (if you have to have a license to exercise a right in the first place).

Next step! Three weeks after mailing,... they finally acknowledge they have it. Whew... Now, how long does it take?

By the way, when I read that people check their status daily, I thought 'that's just crazy'. But guess what I've been doing every day?

Is it normal for it to take two to three weeks for DPS to acknowledge receipt of your checklist? I see a lot in the 2+ week range, but also saw one that was mailed and acknowledged received in two days. What gives?
