Few things are worse than waiting on the government

[BigK]

I mailed off the forms to get my C&R FFL on 7/28. The funds cleared my bank on 8/3. Now I guess I have to wait and wait and wait. ive only been waiting a couple of weeks now and I'm already getting impatient.

I read on another forum that someone got there license in one month. Anyone else been this lucky? If not, what was your wait time like?

I waited about 2.5 months this past year.  I've since used it to purchase 3 pistols ( 2 EG Maks and a CZ52) and  5 rifles (Yugo 24/47, vz24, and 3 Mosins).  The C&R is great but it can be detrimental to your wallet.

My first 2 purchases are going to be a Mosin and a CZ 52 (if there are any left when I get my license). Those 52's are getting harder to come by. I will eventually be getting more rifles than pistols, since there aren't many C&R pistols to be had, it seems.

I think I was lucky.  I sent it out 7/17 and the license arrived at my house on 8/2. 

I have done some damage over the last two weeks.

so you sent yours out 11 days before me and mine is already 17 days past yours. how'd i lose those 6 days in only a few weeks' time?
