where are you guys seeing a threat? I am definitely not trying to threaten anyone. I don't know where you get that?

I just would like to speak with someone in Austin about this, not threaten them. I just want to see what the trouble is, what I need to make my representative aware of, so we can fix this problem.

Also I would appreciate a signature on their emails.


Thanks for the advice suckhow, but I'm already following it ;) I've been a daily visitor to packing.org since I was 17. This is been a long time coming, so I guess a few weeks more wait isn't such a big deal. I just know that no government agency would allow me to pass a deadline without some sort of legal ramifications.

There is at least one state, and I can't remember right off hand which one, that after their time is up, if the license has not yet been issued, they must issue an "emergency temporary license" so just because they are running a little behind, at least the citizen is allowed to carry for his self protection in the mean time. I don't know how well that works for them, or if it would be feasible here in The Great State of Texas, but it would definitely be worth looking into.

And when it does finally get here, we're going out to celebrate, carrying my Firestar .40 in a smartcarry. ;)

well, its been 64 days since I sent in my CHL application. I know, alot of you have waited longer than that. But, its the principle of the thing
I tried calling Austin yesterday, but all I can get is a recording, except finally I did get a voice mail. I left a message, no call back.

I emailed them a week ago, then they told me:

"We did receive your application on 3/7/05; but at this time it is still
going through its regular processing. It takes about 60 days to process,
please give it more time. "

So I waited and emailed them yesterday (the 63rd day) their response was:

Your application is still processing

I dont even get an excuse from them. Just its 'still processing', leave us alone.

This is so frustrating. And I can't get anyone on the phone, and whomever it is answering their email (I dont know who they are, as they don't care to sign their emails) doesn't seem to give a care in the world about me, or the law.

sorry I just need to vent a bit.
