Seems to me they should only work on April applications after all the March applications are processed. Then the April applications should all be processed before they work on May...and so on. My gripe has always been, more about the order they are processing these things than how long it takes.

Hopefully the few of you left over from March are at the end of your ride. Good luck to you. :tiphat:

It sucks, specially when you see April, May, June, and July threads :grumble

Just wondering.

Finally saw status change a week or so ago, and now finally have the plastic in hand! I wish I could think of something momentous to say as I say farewall to this topic, and this thread in particular. But, I guess a small word of encouragement: I hope you get your licenses soon and see you all in the renewal class!!

Congratz to all who have rec'd THE PLASTIC.

Still waiting over here, my 3rd set of prints are at the FBI and they are doing the background check thing.

Its been a bummer of a wait, but oh well, I try not to think about it. I'm hoping my K&D IWB Cochise holster comes in around the same time. I'm hoping it does b/c my Uncle Mikes just aint cutting it!
