  1. I used the phone # shown in the portal and started the call at about 7:27am. Sat on hold for less than 5 minutes.
  2. I submitted my renewal in early April. In early June the portal showed sent to printer with new expiration date. Two weeks ago still waiting so I called the ISP. The lady I spoke to said I should have received it, and requested a replacement. Last week I got another new FOID card, but still no new CCL.
  3. That poor lady is going to die of old age waiting for this fiasco to finally be settled.
  4. My wife let her FOID expire years ago. Early last month she applied for a new one. It arrived in the mail today. Just under 30 days. Every so often the ISP can do things in a timely manner.
  5. Haven't carried at Walmart yet, but did at Bass Pro in Gurnee while helping my daughter try to decide on a carry gun. Definitely felt strange at first but after an hour or so I almost forgot it was there.
  6. Submitted 8/21/18 with prints. Approved 9/25/18 Active 10/2/18 Received 10/15/18 My daughter applied 1 week later than I did and hers was in the mail today as well.
  7. Maybe I am too giddy with joy to think straight, but why are we even talking about 148 at this point? That was a "best we can hope for at this time" bill, but as of today the game has changed immensely. We are no longer required to go hat in hand to every influential group trading away bits of our rights for their support. Forget ridiculous training requirements, forget no campus carry, forget hgh license fees, forget no reciprocity, forget duty to inform. An impasse works to our advantage, why should we negotiate now that WE finally have the upper hand? Look at the Wisconsin carry law...it accepted a hunter's safety class as sufficient training, it accepted another state's carry license as sufficient training. Haven't heard any reports of blood flowing in the streets due to stupid accidents caused by not having 40 hrs of training. Let's dictate some damn tough terms to Madigan & Co and see how they enjoy being on that end of the shaft for once.
  8. You would still be caught up with breaking the Chicago law, as the gun that you left upstairs would be operational as would the one that you made operational in the time of need. A simply ridiculous requirement. I'm sure if you asked nicely the bad guy would give you a minute to dash upstairs to grab the 1st gun. (He says tongue firmly in cheek)
