Finally sent my app docs out

#1

Post by element80 »

Hey everyone!

My name is Trey, and I live in Tyler, TX

Here is my current timeline

Mid July purchased a G27 Gen 4 (approximately 600 rounds through it since I picked it up)

8/4/12 - CHL class completed - Shot my G27 with standard flush mags better than everyone else in the class (tighter group - 1 of 2 with a perfect score)

10/19/12 - app fee paid finger print fee paid

10/26/12 - finger prints submitted paperwork mailed

Now for the wait


Anyone know of a good defensive pistol class in the North Texas / East Texas region?

You may consider getting invovled in IDPA (International Defensive Pistol Association). It is a fun, safety oriented, defensive shooting competition geared towards novices like us. It is an awesome way to practice techniques for real life situations that a CHL licensee might face. It's relatively inexpensive to get involved in. You use your gear you already have, not some tricked out pro shooting equipment. Check em out.
Armed not dangerous but potentially lethal.
CHL Application mailed 10/2/12

Hey Trey,

It appears that we sent out our documents at the same time. I would appreciate any update you receive on the status of your application. In turn I will also update you on the status of mine since our dates are similar.
Good luck.

Very cool! I will look into it.


Really want a different sighting system on my G27 - XS Big dot or Ameriglo Pro Operator?

Well, we lost the Presidential election, they have the Senate, the Presidency and most likely the Supreme Court...on the other hand we have the house and will have an open ticket in 4 years.

In other news, I still have not seen a status change - worried about Child Support - I think I am ok though...I am current, but my case was transferred from Smith Co. to Denton Co. and Smith Co. neglected to close my records, then started showing me as 1k behind....a few phone calls to friends and I was informed it was taken care of "simple mistake on part of the Co (att gen office) - simple for them, but painfully scary for me.


Have any of yall carried without the license? I wear my gun at the house, and practice at the ranch and range - I am so ready to be able to lawfully conceal this gun - almost can't stand it.

I carry all the time while at home, but until my plastic arrives I take it off when leaving the house.

Plastic was mailed on November 1, so hopefully it won't be much longer before I can leave the house with it.
