FILING!
« on: August 03, 2016, 04:22:44 PM »
I'm waiting on the last couple of things before filing.  I have my paperwork and course completed.  My newspaper ad should run on Friday in the Newark Post and I'm scheduled for fingerprinting next Friday, though I may just stop by Delaware State Police in Dover after I finish up my hearings at the Kent County Courthouse on Monday.

When I filed at the beginning of the year, they told me 6 months. I got my license in 7 weeks.

That's excellent news!  I'm filing today as I got fingerprinted yesterday after I finished up my hearings in Dover and I got my certificate of publication in the Newark Post in yesterday's mail.  Hopefully I'll be on the quick side too!

Well, I'm officially filed as of yesterday.  My office runner left a copy of my clocked in and filed application in my office inbox yesterday afternoon.  Hopefully I'll have a relatively quick turn around...and if I'm really lucky, the AG investigators may remember me considering I worked on the same floor as them for a good year while clerking after law school.

Sit back and relax, it will take a while. I applied back in February and it took a little over 4 months for me. I think some people are still waiting for their permits and also applied back in Feb. It's a long process here in the state of Delaware.

I know.  They certainly don't treat CCDW license applications the same as other "routine motions" which have a Supreme Court Mandate for 90 day disposition.

Well, I'm eight weeks in today.  This is nearly as bad as I remember waiting to get my bar exam results back being.

Most people will recommend that you carry concealed while at home in the house to get use to the change in weight. At first it might feel like a brick, but as time goes by you will not even notice it. Lots of people carrying for a short time have a tendency to tug an adjust at you gun because it is uncomfortable. But you'll get use to it. Besides, it is a dead give-away that you are carrying. Good luck.

I've actually been carrying the gun in the house and it's a non issue aside from having to change the way that I sit occasionally as I find that being poked and prodded in the ribs by a Sig isn't the most pleasant thing on earth.

I've got 4 holsters now, so I'm trying to figure out which one I like best. So...I pick one. I wear it all day around the house and out, for a couple days. What I've learned so far is some holsters fit better for some situations. The one I spent the most on seems to be the most uncomfortable, but is easy to re-holster and prints the least. The next least in cost (and reasonably priced) is the most comfortable, but prints...a lot. But I'd still like to be able to eliminate at least two. So my little experiment continues.

I find that a IWB worn at 5 O'Clock works best for me. My personal choice is a Pro Carry Deep Comfort, made and sold by theholsterstore.com in Florida. I have been wearing it all day everyday for about 5 years now and have no complaints, and it has held up well. No plans to replace it any time soon. Bad for them, good for me.

I tried the right backside from 4-5 o'clock and simply couldn't get past the butt or sights always digging in when sitting down, working on/under cars and bikes, rolling around with my kid, etc. Seems I just when I found "THE" spot I'd turn and ouch.. it would dig in.

Since moving it to exactly 3 o'clock I've been super happy. Pretty much 3 solid years now all day everyday. Couldn't be any happier with the location.
