it was about time
I applied for my CCW permit the 7th of nov, I called the 7th of dec, and was told it would take 3 months 
I called monday to see the cash date for my money order and when the 12 weeks date started, I was told my permit had been approved and mailed monday.
I got it today, 1400 miles from where I am as I am in florida, so will be getting it next week, and given our move to florida this week, will be applying for a florida permit.
My understanding is if you have an out of state permit you do not need to take the handgun class here in florida. IS that true? I see no reason to drop 100 bucks for nothing I do not already know. Though the local shop said the waiting time is 2 weeks here so not like it will take to much longer.

I got my CC permit in Minnesota last spring. I took the class. Filed the paperwork with Sheriff's Department for the background check, and had my permit about 3 weeks after taking the class. I was pretty pleased with the whole process. I feel for you guys that have to jump through a few more hoops.
