Got my permit!

seniorgeek, I put in my application on June 15 and my course certification on July 17.  On the 17th I had the chance to speak to Joyce Collins, the Prothonotary for Sussex (she was manning the reception window at the time - lunchtime).  I told her that I was told it would take 2.5 to 3 months and she commented that maybe it would be shorter.  The 2.5 to 3 months makes it about the end of August to mid-September for me.  I'll just while the summer away waiting for it to arrive.  Ms. Collins also said she had about 200 applications on her desk at that time.

seniorgeek - I just noticed that you are a combat veteran.  Thank you for your service under bad conditions!  You help keep us all free.

Markb, thanks. I was a tactical communications specialist with the 1st Signal Brigade. I served in VietNam in '70-'71.

Yes, your wait now starts, so sit back and enjoy the forum and don't fret about it as eventually it will show up.
Now spend the time deciding what pistol to use, type of holster, and then practice with you selection.
You can still go to the range do some shooting, and enjoy what you have and it will make the time go by faster.
