Its here!

Post by asleepatthereel »

The mailman delivered my shiny new plastic today, :anamatedbanana so I talked the wife into going with me for the Wally Walk. We were pressed for time because she had 'more important' things to do (she is still mad about her big headed picture being rejected :smilelol5: ) so it was a pretty quick walk. I actually got the fries at McDonalds, but to my dismay, she had checked out and headed to the car when I got them. Like I said, she really is mad at Austin! I kind of got something gun related, a brand new wallet for my plastic. Heres the pics:

can you spot it?

At least she got a pic of me in line.

Anyhow, it was quick and uneventfull. A good time would have been had by all if she had a smaller head. I tried to console her by saying that if her picture had been smaller, she might have gotten her plastic first. Didnt go over well...

Good luck to whoever takes my chair, Im out of the room, but will poke my head in once in a while to say hi. :tiphat:

Congratulations you lucky dog!

Are you printing on your right side standing in the picture outside McD's. ;-) Hey, it wouldn't matter if you did.

Yep, looks like right side 3 o'clock. But we are looking for it and KNOW you gots a gun in them thar pants somewhere!! LOL

Congratulations and glad no one 'made you' on your Wally Walk. ;-) You will find as you go on that no one even pays any attention to bumps and bulges under shirts. PDA's and cell phones do that to. Unless you are wearing a tight t-shirt and can read the brand on the grips through it, no one will even notice.

Enjoy your new privileges! :txflag:

Oh man! I think I started a new Wally Walk tradition with the pics! Nice job, Sleepy! I vote for full accreditation of the Man Card.

Thanks Yall. Yes 3:00 right side. Noone noticed anything as far as I could tell. Its the Wally out near 288. Im closer to the one on 35, but the wife had plans that took us out that way. :txflag:

I was gonna get one of the IWB holsters, but they didnt agree with me. All of them I tried didnt feel to comfortable so I went with the Bianchi with the finger lock. I like not having to worry about dropping my gun somewhere. Looking at the pics again, maybe I should move it more toward 4:00. It is most comfortable where it is, especially when Im driving the Mustang. Wouldnt matter as much in the truck I guess.

Congrats! So that was 7 weeks + 2 days from "Processing" to "Issued" - a bit faster than CindiSu but not overly, so there's hope for those of us who went "Processing" in late March to get it by the end of this month!
