It truly is... I found myself looking at the clock every 20 to 30 minutes at work waiting to get off so I could get home to check my mailbox. Even though this is the worst feeling. It's the best feeling when you get that letter in the mail and you can feel the plastic inside the envelope.

Finally became a member today and look forward to contributing where possible :tiphat: I'm a North Austin area resident and visit both Eagle Peak & Red's Indoor ranges on a fairly frequent basis.

Signature provides my latest & greatest CHL process information thus far. I'm also hoping to be a member of the 30 days or less club soon!!! This is absolutely amazing how processing has significantly sped up for many. Hopefully, the Holidays do not impact processing of my app too much. Looks like I'm about a week behind the latest completed applications!
Welcome G26!

If everything goes like my app did then you should see you status changed to ( Application Complete )by Tuesday or Wednesday next week. Which, I would think the plastic will be in either Saturday of that week or Monday the following week. Good luck!

That's just what I'm guessing.

Re: December 2009 Applications

Welcome to all the new members. Glad to have you here. I'm pretty new here and from my short time spent here I can tell you that the people here are very informative, courteous, and all around great people. Remember, the only dumb question is the one that isn't asked.

Speaking of holsters. I also received my Crossbreed Supertuck today. This is turning out to be a good week already. :thumbs2:

This is my first IWB holster so I can't really compare to anything. But, it's plenty comfortable for me and I think It is gonna do it's job just fine.

Re: Got the forms sent off to DPS. One question however.

KingofKaty wrote:Shorty - you need to start a new topic for December 2009.

Were you sending it Express Mail (overnight)? In that case you need to use their envelope. For Priority mail you can use your own envelope. I sent it Priority with a tracking number on Monday and it arrived in Austin on Wednesday.
I thought I used just regular ole' mail. I only paid about 5 bucks to send it. Seems like overnight would be at the least 20 to 30 bucks.

Thanks for the comment, I revised the title to read December 2009 Apps.

Re: Got the forms sent off to DPS. One question however.

Whew...

I was getting nervous because I know how picky DPS can be. I guess it's not what's on the outside that counts. It's what is on the inside. So, now what should I expect now? I'm assuming the return receipt, then after that I get a PIN Number that will tell me what the status of my application is?

December 2009 Applications

Well, the ball is officially in DPS's court on getting my CHL. I did have something weird go on at the post office though. The lady that took care of me insisted that If I didn't put the brown envelope, that clearly has the send to address printed on the front of it, into one of those Post office sleeves she could not send my forms. So, she ended up having to fold 2 of the edges of the envelope to fit it into the sleeve. :totap: :mad5

She did make sure nothing was caught where she made the folds at, but will the DPS still accept my forms if they are sent to them in one of these sleeves?
