While I know it is a good idea to carry you LTC at all times, especially if you are carrying, but is it the law? I have managed to get miles down the road to realize I don’t have my wallet and I panic because I am always carrying. I have a photo of it on my phone, but is that enough?

IANAL but I think ammo in any form, even those dreaded assault magazines shouldn't be prohibited or even given a second glance unless you walk through a metal detector to some sort of secure location - and even then they may not do more then raise an eyebrow. Or a body cavity search looking for the...

Can you still wear your magazine?

To clarify, say you go in a place that does not allow firearms so you put the gun in a car safe. Can you keep your extra loaded magazine in its holder on your belt?

I logged on to check my status late last night, just after midnight, and saw no update. I logged on this morning, on my 92nd day of wait, about 7:45 and saw some glorious new options laid before me.

The site used to give a really nice status (picture below). It would be nice if they improved upon that instead of getting rid of it.

I just called this morning for the first time, they told me they had all my documents and it shouldn't be much longer, but please give it more time.

Darn - I guess I'll continue my neurotic ways. And now I have to add weekends to my routine!

Does anyone know if the web site updates all day long or just once a day? In other words, if I check in the morning and do not see the joyful "Change address" option, is it worth checking later that same day or just wait until tomorrow?

Does anyone know if you can email or upload the certified search results or does it need to be snail mailed?

Thanks or the information. I gave them the DA Case # -- so here's hoping that's enough.

Forgot the most important part ... Congratulations on the approval!

If you don't mind sharing, what did you provide to DPS in regards to the arrest?

I had an arrest in 1999 (no charges filed), but the arresting state/county does NOT provide certified copies of the disposition. I am afraid this will really slow me down and/or get me denied.

Thanks!

I am somewhat surprised DPS doesn't have a fee to expedite your application to the front - they would make boat loads. They could not do that because they would have to dedicate resources to a quicker turnaround time on those who pay for an expedited application. As soon as you hit a point where so...

I have an old arrest from 1999 in Las Vegas in which no charges were filed. I disclosed this on the CHL application - even provided the DA case number. I contacted the Clark County DA office to get ahead of a request from DPS wanting the certified disposition. Clark County stated they do NOT provide...
