    You and I are lucky we have AO's that are happy to provide us with mail orders and PTP even though we don't have our cards yet. Legally we are licensed and if a cop ran your name in the system it would say you are too.

    I have had very similar experience to you. I think it has alot to do with how familiar or known you are to the Police vetting team/Arms officer.
