I lived in Vegas back when the mob ran it. I'm beginning to think the mob wasn't as bad as the current politicians.
Welcome!
Howdy dont vote for democrats
I left Las Vegas before my 18th birthday, so I had to look up "blue cards". I didn't get my first CHL until after I moved to Seattle. I have kinda watched over the years the transformation of Nevada from a conservative state to a so called "liberal" state and figured that many of the people I knew must have died off to let it turn like that. I used to work a shooting range near Nellis called the "Las Vegas Rod and Gun Club".I know right? I was there when they just got rid of the blue cards but left right before succumbed to all the fleeing liberals and went blue. Funny how it turns to crap "after" certain political parties take over.

Hey thanks for the heads up. My experience was pretty smooth. The appointments for getting fingerprinting was the most challenging because of covid. I was able to complete the online course within two evenings at my own pace. After completing the course a local instructor reached out to me and scheduled the in person class. I realize it was a little more expensive but not much more to break the bank and I figured my time was worth more for me not to spend it in a classroom. Now I am just in the waiting game since it seems that LTC are taking 60 days to get in the mail because of covid delays. (damn covid). My biggest advice is to plan in advance and make sure you get your Texas ID first that is proving to be a challenge for a lot of new Texans because of covid. Appointments are backed up to Oct/Nov, fingerprinting too is seeing appointment being backed up weeks when from what I've been told used to be maybe a day or two.
I'm having to think back to the 70's, so may have been Nellis, or they changed the name since. I started out as a birdboy, so I was mostly interested in shotguns at the time. I lived close to Nellis AFB and used to be able to set my watch to the Thuderbirds.I ended up in Las Vegas because my wife got stationed at Nellis. I don't know of the Las Vegas Rod and Gun Club but I used to shoot at the Nellis Rod and Gun Club all the time. Loved driving out to the range and watching the planes fly overhead especially the F-22s. They would either fly over my car or I would time it so I could drive along side them as they land using the road that went from Area 1 to Area 2 of the base where the Gun Club was located. Nothing more American while going to the gun range and getting to see an F-22 Raptor buzz you while driving.
it may not be that bad...my friend got his in the mail a few weeks ago and waited 2 weeks, 2 days...i am waiting for mine, 2 weeks and 2 days would be tuesday so hoping to get it next week some time
