Something that might be of interest to Texas People of the Gun:<\/p>\n
My license to carry was up for renewal this year. I filled in the renewal application online on March 3rd.<\/p>\n
My new license was in the post office box when I checked yesterday. So Texas DPS processed it in, at most, a little over two weeks. Not bad, not bad at all.<\/p>\n
(To be fair: I did not have to take a renewal class this cycle, so I wasn’t required to send in proof of that. Also, while Texas DPS did warn me that this was a possibility, it turned out I did not have to get new fingerprints or a new photo. And I suppose it is distantly possible that these results were skewed by the fact that I had to go through recent background checks with the Austin Police Department for the Citizen’s Police Academy classes and my ride-along with APD.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
