Passed the written, passed the range shooting. I go back on Monday to get fingerprinted, then I get to send my package off to Austin and wait 6-8 weeks. 
I passed !!!

For new license, it's $140. I could have claimed indigent, and only paid $70.....isn't that crazy, claiming to not have any money, and having to pay $70 to carry a gun that was probably pawned off long ago for booze......it's a mad, mad world.

Congratulations! Hope rwcreigh's wait is not an indication of yours. But however short or long it is, will still seem long. :thumb: :thumb:

Wheel gun or Semi?
Texas is sort of weird in that respect.

congrats
I am 4 weeks out of a possible 6 week wait for mine in KY. They say 3 to 6 weeks. I know they won't find anything in their check on me. I been checked by Secret Service twice, 5 major airports, and the FBI and never had any problems.
But waiting and going to the mailbox daily and finding nothing is a real pain in the caboose.

Thanks everybody, I feel like I'm part of a special fraternity with you guys now.....
My license is SA, not NSA - I can carry either revolver or semi-auto. I did my range test with my 24/7 Pro 45acp. I only had one outside of the 8 ring, I jerked the gun at 15 yards on the first shot - that was kinda embarrassing until I started looking at other targets afterward - there were some that had multiple hits outside of the silhouette......so I guess I am happy with that. They don't give you a score on either the written or the range test, just PASS or FAIL - so that some defense attorney or DA doesn't bring your score back up later, I imagine.......

Yeah, they did the same thing here in KY, but they did tell me I missed 2 questions on one test, and got 100% on the other. Mulitple sheets of paper to try and hold on my knees, reading the questions on one sheet and writing the answers on the other, I put the wrong check mark on the answer sheet by switching the #'s. I hated that test due to no table to put both sheets side by side.

I passed mine, today, too. Got 100% on the written test, and 96/100 on the live fire. I'll be making an appointment with the Sheriff's dept on Tuesday for fingerprinting and background check. The instructor tells me the wait, in my county, is only about a week or so. :clap: :yipee:
