When I've bought from FFL's, they hand me the paperwork 10 seconds, watch me fill it out 5 minutes, enter it in their computer 5 minutes, wait 2 or 3 minutes, fill out their portion of paperwork 5 minutes, check me out (this always makes me a little uncomfortable) 5 minutes. It's never taken me over 30 minutes from the time I say I'll take it until I have paid.
I have to agree, I attended the Lafayette Gun Show Sunday. I have posted a complaint here a couple times that I couldn't find an AR lower at any GS for the last three months. Well, wonder of wonders at least 3 dealers had them at Lafayette. So I purchased 2 (at 2 different vendors). I sat down and filled out the 4473 in less than 5 minutes, while the dealers were talking to other people attending the show. Neither purchase took the dealer more than 10 minutes to enter the info into their laptop, finish out their paperwork, take my money and hand me my purchase!
I purchased one of the lowers as a gift for my Son. I already had 2 AR lowers at home so now have three to play with. I have a couple of lower part kits. Need to start picking up the rest of the parts ~ not really sure what calibers I want to build, probably one in .223 others in something else...
