yea, thats what i figured. guess will have to weigh the options and see if the transfer is worth it. something about giving away 50 -75 bucks just for paper work. id rather give it to the LGS out right

So yes, i did use price request and so far 1 came in... with a 6 month wait if i order. i can't wait that long. anyway, i started to search the internet and found some good prices but with ffl costs and shipping I'm right around retail. I'm new to this and was wondering, was there ever a benefit to purchasing out of state. i mean with shipping/FFL fees etc your not saving anything. or is buying out of state, primarily for availability

??? im new so little confused... the first sheet is for finger printing which my town doesn't do. have to go to a third party place to get it down. so they are the ones i have to hand this into i believe

So i went to my local PD and got my paper work for my first firearm. started to go through and was going to register online to get my fingerprints done. as i was going through i got to box 7 of the form (contributors case number). it was empty so i called the PD to see if they can give this to me. i was told i should go down and speak to the Detective who gave me the paper work. Sucks cause i can't get there till next week and i think he's off on monday (my day off too), so im gonna try to get this squared away on tuesday. sorry for the rant, just want to get this done (little excited)

thanks for the nice welcome! excellent advice and already looking into a few small safes for now!!!

Just signed up as i have been a lurker. For the past 3 or so years i have contemplating owning a hand gun. The put off is mostly due to my children and always hearing the horror stories about the accidents that happened. Fast forward to today and who we (use that term loosely) put in office. For the first time i am truly worried about our country and our constitution. So because of this its time to "bite the bullet" (sorry for the pun) and get the process started. I am actually looking forward to being a responsible gun owner and maybe it gets me into a new hobby (shooting/hunting) which in a couple of years i can enjoy with my son. with that i would like to say hello and hopefully when i have questions i can be guided by what seems to be a great forum! pitt1717 looking at a S&W M&P45 to start off with
