Ha, sounds about right. If you actually go down there where I had to go to get my FOID, you would understand.

No offense to those in law enforcement, but it is a government facility and is a bit of a disaster zone with high tech items (new printer I guess) and still amounts of paperwork still hand written down. Unbelievable.

But to their credit, I needed an address change with my FOID last month and a new card appeared very fast. Like 3-4 weeks. I was impressed.

I have not taken extra courses yet for my concealed carry, but my brother and I will soon. What were the requirements again and can you use any prior courses (like to get the FOID card) as part of you training hours?
