the rifle permit is a joke. just another add on to pay a fee.just add 10$ to my muzzleoader permit and make it easier. im gonna have to go to my local shop to apply i guess. nice of the state to just get out the digest. this leaves me with less than a week to put in for my special zone permits. [:@] and to top it off if you purchase your permits and license on line you cant use the confirmation # to go hunt immediately. our technology coordinator has an article in the digest saying our lovely new system is NOW ran by a contractor? $$$$$$$$ called-- ALS (AUTOMATIC LICENSE SYSTEM) so for the 2$ extra we have to pay we will now have the privilage to wait 7 TO 10 BUSINESS DAYS TO GET WHAT YOU PAID FOR. the reason i guess is that some rocket scientists decided to use a company in NASHVILLE TENNESEE[:'(] whats up with that?
