Can you post pictures of the damage? I am interested to see it and curious if the threads pulled out or if the barrel itself came apart.

I suspect that Taurus will not give you a refund for the weapon, however I also suspect they will not repair it as this sounds like a materials issue. In fact ...

Defective Taurus Model 66 .357

My wife and I went shooting with some friends on Saturday morning. I was watching her shoot (she was doing really, really good), 4-5 people were standing around because she was shooting so well. I saw something fly down range and thought someone had thrown a clip from a few stalls down or something ...

Finally Done

Well, I broke down and called DPS again.. They said that my paperwork is with a Technician and transferred me to that Technician. The Technician was on the phone so I left her a voicemail. Hopefully she will call back and I can find out more information..

Maybe the wait is because I sent them a couple of e-mail early on trying to understand what was going on with my application. I didnt understand the PIN thing at the website and sent some e-mails back and forth. I was polite but maybe I irritated them off so they put my app at the bottom of the pile ...

Re: CHL taking way more than 60 days

Did you put your overseas work locations on your application? No, I didnt put anything on my application about living overseas..
I'm pretty sure DPS has no access to your federal income tax return. That is normally available only for tax or federal criminal investigations (like money laundering ...

Re: CHL taking way more than 60 days

I took my CHL class in January and mailed off all of my paperwork to DPS on Feburary 20. It is now May 16 so my CHL has so far taken almost 90 days. I called DPS in Austin last week to be sure that there was nothing wrong and to find out if they could tell me what might be delaying my CHL. The lady ...
