Indiana state police anger

[Bottlefed]

First off not angry at officers or the department in general just there's no one to talk to about this. Basicly my wife filed and was approved to have her lifetime pistol permit in fact a local officer looked it up and shows she has it yet We still haven't seen her pink paper yet. Then when you call or go in the website it directs you to a recording that says sorry we can't talk to you about your gun permit. So what do I do drive an hour to the station or resubmit and spend the money and wait 8 months again? Any help would be great.

At the worst, you won't have to refile all the paperwork and go through the hassle. My worst case would be to apply for a duplicate to replace a "lost" LTCH.

Probably just got lost in the mail. I would just keep trying numbers for the State Police until I talked to someone. Does their website show a way to get a replacement???

If it says she has it she doesn't need the piece of paper. I'd file for a replacement if I couldn't get any resolution. Is it possible it showed up at the house and not knowing what it was it accidentally got thrown out. I've lost about $100 worth of stuff at my house thanks to that....

Can you write? How about sending a brief letter explaining the situation and asking them to drop her license in the mail. A trick to make things really simple is to include a self addressed stamped envelope, then whoever gets the letter at their desk can complete the entire replacement task all at once.

Have you tried emailing them through their website? I waited over 6 months and heard nothing. Sent them a nice email stating when I applied and all the other info I thought they'd need and 2 business days later they called me.

Doesn't need the piece of paper? I'm not a lawyer, but I certainly wouldn't want to try and explain that to an angry police officer with a Glock 22 pointed at me for carrying without proof of license.

You don't need to have it on your person.

We are in the computer age and your LTCH is in the DL database.

Not sure why they'd be angry or pointing guns on the mere possibility of charging a person with a misdemeanor.

You haven't had too many encounters with police, have you?

more than my fair share and never once had a gun pointed at me.

Simple solution, but this the handgun forum.

If you call the number that is at the bottom of the page and hit zero, it will take you to an operator and then tell them you wish to speakmto a supervisor. I had the same issue, and come to find out they had it sitting in the mail room because it got wet at some point in time and they could not read the address so it was sent back and sat in the ISP mail room for an unknown ammount of days

 

[Mikeshep1462]

Hmm, I thought they made an E-mail account specifically to handle LTCH questions during the big rush last year due to the high volume of calls they were receiving. My memory could be foolin' me, or maybe they have since taken it down. I would go the e-mail route either way though. I'm sure there's an E-mail address somewhere on their page that would yield you a reply.

Edit: Or do what the guy above me said. He got his reply typed and posted while I was still typing.

 

[whitetailbowhunter]

Email the address on their website. They usually respond within a few days and i'm sure they would be able to help you resolve everything.

Drive down town and get a duplicate, your's could have been lost in the mail.

 

[SaintsNSinners]

you in the dog house now....



Did you just call your wife "The Wide" ?

This is the email address I used and they responded with in two days. Isp.in.gov
