That’s why you get a CPL. Still have to fill out purchase paperwork but leave with your “supplies” without waiting for approval. Atleast in MI.

I walk out with approval here in WA; anywhere from a few minutes to an hour if really really busy. I have a CPL so I get to take my handgun purchase with me same day. Last handgun was a .40Smith MP Shield.

Sam in Idaho. CWP means no NICS check. Finish your 4473, pay and leave with your purchase. CWP applies to more than just firearms as well.

How lucky are you. I am a victim of repetitive boating accidents that has caused PTSD

My Doctor has prescribed a twice a week shopping spree as therapy. Iam “Midway USA” thru it but buying in “Bulk Ammo” isn’t anything close to being “Cheaper than Dirt”.

#33 If the Beast wins expect that to increase to the full two days without approval until she is sworn (at) in and burns the Constitution on National TV.

Most likely the same thing might happen to us; not saying it will but you know how finicky large bodies of water can be whilst traveling thereupon. Don’tchaknow.

Was it a warning or coded marching orders?

Been thinking/saying for a long time that certain persons would not rest happily until we have been nuked.
Little concerned that Someone trotted out info during the debates which could be considered permissive, as well.
