That would sure be nice. I have been practicing and have been MUCH more comfortable with the Keltec p11 with belt clip than the XD40sc and crossbreeed superstuck. I blame the love handles that I'm working on.

Looks like I'll be joining the milestone group ~ finally got the PIN in the mail :hurry: (I was begining to wonder why you all had got yours but I still had not) ~ so now I'm officially "Processing Application" as well.

Now if I can just put it out of my mind until Thanksgiving I may be good.....how do I do that though :mad5

Hey everyone,
Brand new, and this looked like a good place to land. I sent my app in on Aug 11 and they've been processing it every since. Funny thing today; went to get the mail and there was an envelope from DPS! It even had a card in it that I could feel! I was jumping for joy until I opened it and realized that it was my wife's replacement driver's license. Oh well, looks like I have good company in here.

Hello again all ~ I've been on vacation for the last week and haven't had a chance to review the forum. I was surprised to log on today and see that the last post was on 9/10.....come on guys ~ I need updates ~ has anyone got their plastic yet (I don't think so but I thought I'd ask)....anyone have any info on current processing times....anyone .....anyone....I logged back into the DPS website today and I'm still "processing application" which was frustrating. Any new would be great.

Took the weekend off for a parent's weekend trip, but checked again this morning; still proccessing application. Talked to a trooper in Kansas this weekend (in a restaurant, not pulled over), and he said although the wait in Kansas is long, they kind of joke about the wait in Texas. He was pro-chl!
