I just renewed my CCL this past March and was told on their website to continue to carry my old CCL, which the expiration date is 4/22/2024 even though my new expiration date is 5 years from then. They said that the ISP was not going to send any new updated cards. What could possibly go wrong with this policy?
This. Frankly I think our side should ask SCOTUS to send the lower courts an instructional flow chart as to how to apply Heller and Bruen.
I had one like yours, received a replacement, but don't remember when.
Have any forum members received replacement cards?
They can technically do as much or as little as they want......it is called Supreme after all.
Some of the early combined cards weren't printed correctly. They were supposed to have all been replaced. You're probably not alone.
I was thinking the opposite, though. What if they decide to sit this out completely and just let the various circuits work out the details?
