Has anyone heard if the fine folks at DPS track the number of times that an applicant checks on their status?
And if they do check, how many times in any given period would be a 'red flag' as excessive to them - bringing up concerns regarding the mental stability of an applicant? Just asking...for a friend who wanted to know. :oops:

Meanwhile, I am just waiting and watching the mail (in a most normal sort of way). :mrgreen:

:txflag:
Haha, I thought the same thing every time I checked, which had to be 4-5 times a day!

Re: Jan 2010 applications

jmdevera, have you gotten a reply to your email from DPS? IIRC, you sent one recently.

I didn't go to Wally World, but I did go a meat market, grocery store, and of course- a gun store!

Re: Jan 2010 applications

I don't know either. I do know that my status changed for sure yesterday morning, since I checked my status ALL THE TIME.

I will let y'all know when it shows up!

Re: Jan 2010 applications

Joe- I shoot it occasionally. I have another '03 that I shoot, too. The Belgian contract piece is too rough to be considered a collector's item, IMO.

Need to find a .380 pocket hammerless auto!

Re: Jan 2010 applications

Joe- if that's the case I should have it on Thursday, which would be 22 days from receipt of my packet!

I'm in Houston. That .32 is a Colt Belgian contract. John Brunner put out a 2nd edition of the Colt Hammerless Automatics book. It's $80, but worth every penny.

Re: Jan 2010 applications

Thanks for the congrats guys!

Now, the 10 billion dollar question is: How long til the license gets here? I'm guessing within a week.

I gotta hand it to the DPS- they got this done QUICK! I don't know if they hired more personell, got a better system in place, etc... Whatever the case may be, I am grateful not to have had to wait 6 months!

Re: Jan 2010 applications

Thanks guys! Hopefully there will be an update on the DPS website this week!

Joe, thanks! That is an '03 with Belgian proof marks. I have another '03 that I plan on carrying occasionally when I don't carry a .45. I'm also on the lookout for an '08 .380.

Re: Jan 2010 applications

Been reading this forum on and off for a week or so, just registered. Tons of great info here, I like it!

Sent my packet on 01/11/2010, received 01/13/2010, "Processing Application" on 01/20/2010. Four business days to start processing was a pleasant suprise! I check the DPS page a few times a day. Makes you wonder if there is a tracker in the system to amuse DPS employees, haha. Ah, hurry up and wait!!!
