in the meantime READ chapter 2 in the handgun book and then read it again. understand the rules is the best thing you can do

Re: Waiting on plastic
Thanks for the suggestion. Lately I've been practicing at the range. Now that I have started to check on my status I feel as if they forgot about me. I email. Nothing. They took over 2 weeks to acknowledge my packet and since then nothing. I am a terrible at waiting.

Re: Waiting on plastic
Congrats on your status change.
I want to know who I need to talk to to get my packet moved to a different desk
I have been in BR for 35 days.
They have had my packet for 49 days

Re: Waiting on plastic
I don't know if it had an effect, but I contacted them and soon after movement began. So I would at least ask them. The response I received simply stated that I was in background review.
Note: My wife and I took the same class and processed everything together, yet she is at least a week in front of me. Who knew? I think I got the slow desk and she got the fast. Sending the packet down over night was useless as they took three weeks to acknowledge having it. So this is definitely a hurry up but wait game. In the mean time I practice, shop and check the site 800 times a day

Re: Waiting on plastic
I emailed them two weeks ago, still no movemnet, just got the standard reply, they have 60 days. They defiinitely have atleast one slow desk. I should have known I would get that desk. Oh well, nothing to do but wait. Think I need to go shoot this weekend.rogersinsel wrote:I don't know if it had an effect, but I contacted them and soon after movement began.

Re: Waiting on plastic
Geez that was fast. I mailed mine and so did my wife one 4-24. Still in background check. I would have figure my wife would have gotten hers fast. She is active duty military but nope if anything I think she will get hers after me.

Re: Waiting on plastic
My beloved wife received her plastic today! Since I appear to be running some 3-5 days behind her I can only assume sometime this week. I cannot stand not having anything to check all day long except the mailbox at night. This is the worse part yet.
