meh. Relax. Some places drag butt like Hennipen County....while others are exceedingly fast. A friend of mine lives in Farmington and he has his PTP in 2 days. See.... your experience is giving credence to my point that getting a PTC is the way to go. Renew every 5 years and then for the next 5 years you can purchase pistols as much as your wallet can afford.

Oh I'm not sweating anything.

When I dropped it off the officer who handled permits told me no more than a week to receive it. I assumed

My point isn't about sweating anything..... my point was (and is) that with a PTC, you don't have to wait. I'd rather renew once every 5 years than to renew every year. PLus, with a PTC, you can buy AND carry whereas with a PTP, you can only buy. I like options. I like not being limited (as much as I can be... I know everything has limitations. They can't be eliminated, but they can be reduced.)

Those instructors down in the cities are making a killing on the classes they charge...

My instructor up in northern mn only charges $75 for the carry permit class. Then $100 from the Sheriff's office... $175 for a permit to carry is a steal of a deal.

Are you certain it will be mailed?
Back when, in St Paul, I had to pick them up at the police station.

Range fee was included. Just had to bring your own firearm. If you didn't have a firearm the instructor borrowed you one of his. When my dad took his last month there was a guy who didn't have a firearm at the class. I was sitting in on the class with my dad. I let him use my XD9 compact. He shot it pretty well. Said it was his first semi auto handgun that he had fired. Always had revolvers.

I asked if I needed to pick it up, They told me they would mail it to me.

How long ago was that? IIRC, I got my first PTP in 2003, and the city mailed it.

I remember quite distinctly back in the late 80s. I went down to pick it up and ran into a high school acquaintance in the dept. I don't recall how I was notified it was ready, or if I even was.
It could be that some of the last/ latest permits I got were mailed out.
