Ouch. That's rough. When I picked mine up they asked for my license. The photo is on the LTC too. Whoever gave it out must have forgot their morning coffee 
good luck though, hopefully the person they gave it to realizes their mistake and brings it back.

Just take the one that was waiting for "the other guy". You'll be fine.

unless the picture on it is of the person they gave it too, AND/OR any gun shop/sporting goods store decides not to look at it, anyone will have a hard time using it. the problem is if they flag your name, hoping to catch someone trying to use it, and you get turned down/stopped/held up etc
i had to show my lic when i got mine.

The good news is they have to replace it at no expense to you.

I'm surprised that the guy who got your license didn't notice it. I would think that most people would check to make sure that the info was correct...I know I do, particularly when it comes to my LTC.
Simple self-preservation. I don't want to have to try to explain to an LEO why I'm carrying with someone else's license. That could be an interesting conversation.![[shocked]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/007.gif "Shocked [shocked]")

Sorry, this one doesn't pass the smell test. A lawfull citizen going to pick up their LTC at the police department is going to look at it to make sure the name, address, fingerprint, picture all look ok. Otherwise, HE will not be able to lawfully use it!
Sounds more like they just lost it, and made up a story.

OK,who's the joker here at NES walking around with someone else's LTC?
Sorry, I had to do something. My town only issues me a class B.
The first thing I did when I got mine was open it up in my truck outside the PD and I screamed, yelled, hooted, and hollered in a joyous, jubilant (what probably appeared as manic) cacophany.
If the cops looked out the window, I would have appeared to be "unsuitable" with the level of my enthusiasm.

Did they give away your PIN# too ?

The MIRCS system validates the license in real time when a gun purchase is being made. I wonder, however, if the number changes on a duplicate/replacement, or if it is impossible to activate the replacement while keeping the original unactivated.
