I guess the folks at DPS are making haste. They got my app on the 12th of November and I received my CHL today... :woohoo :txflag: :thewave :tiphat:

That's about what it took for mine, 3.5 weeks. I'm not sure of what day we actually got it in the mail, I haven't been checking it that often lately.

Congrats!

You reckon the upcoming Gubernatorials have anything to do with the improvement of CHL processing?

I don't know if it's impressive or frightening that a background check would go that quick.

I'm gonna get me one of those in-the-shirt-sleeve rigs that pushes my pistol into my hand when I extend my arm, and then fires it when I fart.

81 days and STILL waiting...
