How long after the site says “license has been issued” should I expect to wait before the card comes in? I put a deposit down on a piece and I’m just trying to see how long I should let the shop know they’re going to have to hold the gun for me. Site says to call after 2 weeks. So I’m assuming the “license issued” message means the mailed the card?

Ok awesome, idk you can never trust what they say lol. I was nervous “2 weeks” would actually be 2 months.
