Mine too was approved on a Tuesday.  It was in my mailbox on Saturday. Congratulations! It’s been an adventure.

[MarkB]

No permit in the mail today!!  MSP didn't overnight it.  I guess I'll just wait until Saturday/Monday.

USPS informed delivery is showing an envelope from the Maryland State Police for delivery tomorrow.  My permit should be inside it.  I'll confirm tomorrow.

Early congratulations.

Patients my friends, patients. A watched pot never boils.

Hey Sturm:   You gonna go for it?

[Clarence]

I am hoping to submit my application later this week. Is there anything special I should know?

Make sure you and your instructor sign your qualification sheet.  I’ve seen people on the MDShooters site have it kicked back and delayed weeks for this.

Thanks Clarence! I think that was in order. I just submitted my application today. Here is hoping everything is in order!

This is confirmation that I received my Maryland permit today.  Interesting that there is no address on it.  There is no way to tell that I'm not a Maryland resident.  As luck would have it, I had to make a trip this afternoon and evening to Kent Island.  It was nice to have that weight on my hip when I crossed into Maryland.

MD having a portal where you can view the status of your application is both a blessing and a curse. I know good and well that I am not seeing my permit for weeks, but that doesn't stop me from checking for updates two or three times a day. haha

If you want to drive yourself really crazy, check out the MDShooters forum / application tracking
Apparently it goes by the “acceptance” date of your application ( not the submission) date.  People on there checking what day they are approving. ( right now they are approving July 27th acceptances).

Maybe Delaware is better for your sanity as you just cast a pile of paper into a black hole and start checking your US Post office mail box after a couple months until it magically appears.

[Seth]

Yeah, I regularly visit over there as well seeing what the latest scoop is.

I have USPS Informed Delivery so each day they send me a picture of the mail I will receive that day. You better believe when I was waiting on my Delaware permit that I was keeping an eye on that every single day as well.

Too bad "shall not be infringed" is too vague for most people to understand.

[Radnor]

Seth, check your mailbox.

 

I'm the same way. Check regularly

Clarence,
I was born and raised in Maryland. Have lived in Delaware for over 55 years now, I seldom go to Maryland and at my age I can't convince myself getting a MD. permit would be worth it.  I will probably shelve that for now.
