Thanks lildave - would you mind backing me up while I make a quick run into the Kroger I'm out of coffee....

Another admittedly small, but I think important place you can be legally armed without a CHL is when you are leaving your home to your car and of course back.

In other words you don't have to leave your pistol in the vehicle, so you have some protection while walking to and from and that might ...

I would think you have a restraining order in place as well right? I know it may not help much but it may be a bit of a deterrent. Stay safe and let us know how it goes.

Yes, I am on my second set of multiple restraining orders. One is for him, then the club, associates of the club, people he ...

Melissa,
Have you tried talking to your rep? I'm wondering if he/she could possibly expedite it? I don't know if it's possible, but, well they can sometimes expedite passports, so....maybe, given the situation and depending on who your rep is?

That could be a plus.

You can go to a range with someone if you want or by yourself. There are pros and cons for both. When you are alone you don't have a need to satisfy someone else. If you like company find the nearest A Girl and A Gun, they are national.

I really don't have any female friends to go with. I did my ...

Oh LOL! I can't wait to get to the mailbox everynight to check.

Anything yet?

Both.
I agree with Pawpaw. What he said.
I have a laser on my carry gun - I also have tritium night sights and practice without the laser.
Why both? Because the way my luck runs the laser batteries will be dead when I really need them.
I like the green laser because it can be seen in daylight.
You ...
