Don't worry. I am sure you will get.yours faster than I have still not received mine. Mine was mailed on the 24th and still nothing. Although mine might be in part due to me forwardeing my mail. I did just today receive my first piece of forwarded mail though. So that's a good sign. Then as soon as I get it I will have to update the address.

I am starting to have some doubts on when mine will arrive. I have seen others that went to mailed after me and already got theirs. I know it has only been 6 days since I went to mailed status but my process so far has not been speedy so very skeptical about the mailing process being speedy. My luck it will be one of those boxes that got pushed to the corner and forgotten about when sending to post office. :banghead: I guess it will get here when it gets here. :waiting:

Congratulations Tbucher! I've been following your saga from afar. Here's hoping mine get's mailed next week. It went into manufacturing today (Saturday) which I found a bit surprising since I don't think they work weekends.

Thanks, I know mine wasn't the longest but was close. Anyway your wait won't be long now. Will probably go to mailed today and if your lucky will be there by the weekend. :fire

Well, I had my first carry outing. Nothing really exciting, which is good. :cool: I went to Dollar General, we went to a couple of other stores as well as out to dinner. At the stores, I continually was hold my stomach in so that I wasn't pushing the gun out. :smilelol5: Husband noticed and was laughing at me. At the restaurant, I had to go to the restroom to re-adjust cause I felt like it was sticking out of my ribs. :lol:: All of which I was the only one that noticed any of this. Husband also told me to stop holding my elbow against the gun, so I switched my purse to that side. lol. It is definitely something I am going to have to get used to. All in all it was a successful first carry weekend. Still haven't done my official Wally walk yet though.

Happy carrying and wish for all to never have to use. :cheers2:
