Re: September 2011 Applications
This will not make Carl or Bill feel any better, but I'm still checking the mail for my plastic. Twice a day. My XD .45 compact is here, but I'm not going to pick it up until my plastic is in hand.

Re: September 2011 Applications
Don't worry XnTx, when I see mailed I plan on pitching a tent next to the mail box... I hope it gets there soon. For me? no updates, still on BG under review.
I've spent a lot of money on guns, bullets and holsters.... The rest I've just squandered away!
Re: September 2011 Applications
New to the forum - was told about in in my CHL class. Lots of great info. Looking forward to learning more.
Anyone know if DPS tracks how many times you log in to check on the status of your application? Mine is probably through the roof.
Now that I know I've cleared the background check, you might think I could just wait for the license to arrive in the mail? I wouldn't take that bet if I were you!

Well, Grapevinebill, I don't know what to say except....PLASTIC! Hang in there! Man this has been one heck of a long, stressful journey. Good luck and I can't wait for Saturday!!! 
Mahzik, I probably checked mine 10 times an hour. Kind of like grass growing...and lately, well...

Good for you Carl. Now I think I can take on the role of elder statesman here! Not that I want to....

EDIT: Nope, no surprise. haha, still BG under review
