Called the ISP gun Division at 232-8264 today. As of today they are processing applications submitted on Jan 22nd. I applied Jan 28th, they told me it will be approx. 7-10 more days for mine to process and be mailed out.
Seems this is a common question for us folks trying to keep it legal and do the proper paperwork to stay out of the Graybar Motel.
I filled out the paperwork, paid the dues, scaled it an mailed it in Hancock County on 01/28/08. I tracked my "Bank bought" money order and found that it was cashed by the State one week to the day. I read some where online, it escapes me where now, but... once your money order is cashed you can count on approximately 7-8 weeks for the permit/license to arrive via snail mail.
I'll post when I receive my permit/license in an effort to give others an idea of wait time. Granted this will be subject to whatever back log exists at the ISP. But I know when your looking for info, any smidgeon of hope helps.
PistolPete , is in the same boat as I am. Although he's already at his 7 or 8th week of wait if memory serves me correctly.
Oh and a good read for anyone that hasn't read it yet...check out the online gun safety course on Pop Gun's website. Its a good reminder read , with some hidden gems.

That's a great idea. Is it legally binding?
LMAO. Yes he definitely has some holes he needs to fill. I can recommend a good plastic surgeon.Pete, I scanned my laminated license in at the house this morning. The result was better than expected considering the scanner I used. Will definitely need the #20 pink paper stock to print it though. The text shows up pretty light almost grey, and the background color is lighter as well. But might be worth tweaking to get good copies.
Oh and no word from JP today either, I think he got a serious case of lead poisoning yesterday lmao
