Lost PIN

[rwl1955]

I could have sworn I placed a small white label on my license w/my pin but now it's gone. Who do I call/ write/email to retrieve it?

My 'guess' would be the PD that issued it to you.

...or...it should be with the papers that you got with your LTC.

I write my PIN on the card with a Sharpie.

You can call the state and get it over the phone.

FRB 617 660 4722

Here:

You can now retrieve the PIN number for your active license to carry (LTC), firearms identification (FID) card, or machine gun license through the DCJIS by calling (617) 660-4722

during the normal business hours of Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The following information is required:

Name

Date of birth

Active LTC, FID card, or machine gun license number

Driver’s license number (for identity verification)


Questions other than retrieving the PIN number should be directed to the FRB at (617) 660-4782.

Your state government, once again, thanks you for being a loyal servant .

(I think the last sentence was somehow added in there while I was copy/pasting. )

"5. What if I do not have, or have forgotten, my PIN?
You must contact the police department that issued your license to obtain your PIN number. The FRB cannot provide you with this information."

Yep. Just call the state. I lost mine and figured I would run into typical gov't BS (no clue what I was talking about, 4 month wait, etc). Instead, the person was able to pull it up immediately, was incredibly helpful, and incredibly friendly. Twilight Zone.

Thanks for the help. Now that I think about it more I might have placed the letter in my safe. I'll check when I got home and I swear I placed a sticker on the back of my card. It sucks getting old. I was telling my co-worker to place his pin on his new license and whipped my out and no pin. Duh!

Got mine from licensing officer with a quick phone call. No big deal.

Mines in my safe and I have it saved in my phone under contact GUNZZ.. I also memorized it which wasn't to hard for me anyway, I've got my social, drivers license, bank account numbers and my debit/credit cards memorized too so maybe it's a natural thing on my part.

I have mine as a contact in my phone, along with in the safe

 

[rwl1955]

Duh! I did store the letter in my safe and now I put my license number and pin in my phone.

Glad you found it and made a plan B.
