Me too.
I had just turned 43 in April when I bought the 380, and got the LTCH in May.

2009 when I turned 21. Would have done it at 18, but never did take the time to apply for it. But once my 21st bday was around the corner, I said it was high time to get it done.

1975, same year I moved in to my own place. Long before I ever heard of a "permit". Probably didn't have any carry permit for 4-5 more years.

Applied for lifetime LTCH in DEC 08 even though I didn't own a gun yet. I was 21 at the time. Wasn't until mid-2009 that I got my first gun and started carrying, at age 22.

April 2008. Same time I joined INGO. Hmmm... coincidence, huh?

Same deal. Joined INGO right around the time I started researching what gun to get and general info on carrying.
