Today at the Skeet/Trap range in Albuquerque, NM I met recent transplants form Illinois and California. When they asked what it took to buy a handgun in NM I told them “a driver’s license and money”. The asked about waiting periods and purchase limits.
They both about fell on the ground when I told them I’d purchased 5 handguns in one afternoon.
“How did you do that?”
I had money and a driver’s license.

Reminds me of when I was in Tucson, AZ
I walked into a gun store and said “I moved here from NY and I’m not sure what the laws are in this state- what do I have to do to buy this gun?”
And he said “give me $450”.

LOL. I stopped at the local gun store last night and picked me up a Ruger LC9 on my way into town to buy groceries. I needed to get some bread and milk and stuff.

No- being able to buy from a gun store or a dealer
without having to fill out that idiotic federal paperwork is how it should be.

Gallery of Guns I've bought from them. My local dealer uses the site for his 'online store'.

No you don't! Here's stories that work:
1. Tom at work is going on vacation and asked me to keep this for him.
2. Jim at work is getting a divorce and he dosen’t want her to get it.
3. “Debbie” my girl friend bought it for me as a Christmas present and now that we broke up I'm bringing it home with me.
WARNING: Use Number 3 at your own peril!

I bought my better half an LC9 just before Christmas.
Nice little gun.

That’s why I picked this one up. Something the wife would be able to handle too.

Last week I bought a box of ammo in Iowa with only a drivers license. I was legaly carrying at the time with a Florida permit. I could not have bought a gun there with my Illinois FOID. I returned to my home state where I cannot carry, but could have bought a gun. Confusing laws?

...stories that work: I have to be careful with the wife. If I'm not...there will be a VERY LONG waiting period. ;-)

"Are you a fugitive from justice?" "Yes, I am, and I am such a completely inept one, I am going to answer yes to this question and give myself away!" LOL...yeah, I don't joke about filling out that form since the first time I bought a gun, I was joking around, marveling at such a stupid question, and I VERY stupidly marked "yes." Thankfully, the nice lady helping me was very understanding and helped me through my numbnutsness. I was quite embarrassed, as you can imagine!

This is the first time my wife ever used an auto-loader. Even though she's a southpaw, she picked up on it really quick and is pretty accurate with it.
There seems to be a mag shortage though. Haven't found any in the stores. May have to order some from Ruger.
