Looks like the rain has not helped in my case.
6/10/07 - Took class
6/18/07 - Mailed App
6/22/07 - Received confirmation
6/26/07 - Check cashed
7/09/07 - Still waiting for PIN
7/11/07 - Received PIN
Letter was dated July 5 so I was sure as soon as I used it on the status page that it would read "application completed" yeah right
Well I am happy with the "application processing" vs. "unable to process application because frankly we are tired of looking at so many of them".

Thanks for the advice, but I probably jumped the gun when I emailed them on the 3rd. They replied that it was not in the system yet and that it was likely going through the processes required before entry. From what I have read in this forum they are really nice about it and would probably would not mind me emailing again, but I don't want to rock the boat.

You aren't even at 30 days yet... yeah, you should expect a bit more waiting. Set yourself a reminder to email again on 1 August, but don't do it before then.

30 days is a tough wait. I sent my application via regular mail on the 17th of June and regretted not using registered mail on the 18th. Not knowing that they have received the paperwork is tougher than waiting for the processing to complete.
At least you know that they received your application. I received my pin on July 5th (18 days including mail time door to door). I was really starting to get concerned that I hadn't used enough postage. PIN worked fine and I'm now in the "Processing Application" phase. At least I know I used enough stamps.

Det,
At least if it's raining, you won't be out in it shooting. Spend some time on the web, research some future "additions" to the family, make a list of items that will go with you to the range that day...alphabetize your cheerios...wait..that won't take long.
