Re: January 2014

We sent ours certified mail with tracking. They were received two days after we sent them. (We also made copies. Our CHL instructor insisted upon it.)

Re: January 2014

I know they got mine because I sent it Certified Mail with tracking. I wonder if they reply only to apps sent via email.

Re: Walmart 22lr

I was fortunate enough to find over 2500 .22 cartridges in my father-in-law's gun cabinet after he passed away. And found three more boxes in the laundry room cupboard last week. Most are .22LR but there are a few boxes of .22 WMR and one 100 count brick of shorts. I only have two .22LR rifles and o...

Doesn't sound right at all. Resubmit and makes sure you click the right links.

Re: January 2014

I'm guessing the time difference between email submission and snail mail is minimal in the grand scheme of things.

Re: Mailing documents vs emailing them

I would hate to delay processing by sending duplicate documents: email and snail mail, but I have certainly considered it.

Universal Cry for help for nearby CHLs

A post in another thread got me to thinking. If you were in a large crowd situation (parade, street fair, pre-game tailgating, Saturday afternoon WalMart parking lot) and trouble came your way, wouldn't it be nice to yell out a verbal signal that would bring other CHL holders running to assist you? ...

Mailing documents vs emailing them

I just mailed our (bride's and mine) documents to the CHL office today. Following the recommendation of our CHL instructor, I mailed them separately, certified mail. But I am wondering how many people are now scanning the docs and attaching the files to emails to send them in to DPS in Austin. And i...

Re: .22 Revolver Recommendation for Lady

I would recommend the Ruger LCR. It is available in .22LR, and the same size revolver is available when you upgrade to a .38 or .357. I know you are asking about a .22, but I cannot seriously recommend one for self defense. Upgrade to a .38 Special or 9mm minimum as soon as she is proficient with t...

Re: CHL came with wrong picture.

Years ago, when my son was in college, he had to renew his passport for a school trip to Europe. The passport came back with a photo of a black guy who was a member of the school group. My son is a pale blonde guy. We thought it was pretty funny but I have no idea how it could have happened. Human e...

Re: Advice: Wife won't carry

Going through something similar with my bride of almost 40 years. We have always had a few guns in the house. I took her to the range many years ago when I bought my first gun: SW Model 10 .38. She moves it to her night stand when I'm out of town. She knows how to use the double barrel 16 gauge shot...
