Hi CompVest,

Gee, thank's for the warm welcome. I would like to thank you for being a moderator on this super Forum.

Hi Venus,

Thank you for the reply! I never considered the possibility of converting a regular purse to a gun purse.

Thanks again for your suggestions ...

Hi Mike,

I appreciate your suggestion. I wil check into this line of purses as well.

Thanks for your assistance!

Hi,

I appreciate your suggestion. I don't live in the Houston area, but am only about 2 hours from the DFW area. Trying out different styles is a great idea.

Thank you for taking your time to help this newbie!!!

Dear Charles,

Thank you so much for the input. Your logic is sound when it comes to accessability, as well as safety. The NRA Personal Protection Outside the Home course sounds like something I should study as well. I shall look at Galco and some of the other purse makers.

Thank you for your ...

Update on the I-HOP hop and the Wally Walk . . .

Well, today I got out and we headed for I-HOP. Now could it be a sign that when we were about two blocks away from home the local weather warning sirens started going off? DH was wondering if the sirens were possibly warning everyone out there that I ...

Happy early birthday! Maybe the DPS Gods will look kindly upon you and bestow an eagerly anticipated present to you.

Will do! Looking forward to those tasty nachos!

Hi Friends,

I'm getting ready to go to I-HOP and do the "I-HOP Hop", then I'll work off those excess calories doing the Wally Walk!

Hi All,

I guess patience (if that is what you could call it) has paid off!

Well, here I am at 48 days (from Feb. 22nd - "Processing Application") and no word. Yes, I check the website every day, but with all this extra time to spare, I printed up calendars in Calendar Creator and now look at how many days have gone by. :cryin

Hi Everyone,

Who said that patience is a virtue? :smilelol5: Whoever made this bold statement wasn't going bonkers waiting for their CHL! Of course, checking the website daily is necessary. Spending hours on the internet, bookmarking sites (Firearms, then Guns, Forums, Shopping, Gun Shows, and ...

Morning Everyone,

Yes, I'm sure looking forward to going to the Gun Show in Longview Saturday . Could it be that I'm addicted? If so, no better addiction is out there.
