Waiting period???

CT =

2 week wait on long guns if you have no carry permit and no pistols without the permit.

If you have a hunting license you can walk right out same day with a long gun or shotgun but no pistols.

If you have a pistol permit you can walk right out same day with a long gun or a pistol.

Man, you have just to love Texas

In Idaho, you have to wait for the salesperson to put it in a bag, way to long of a time in my opinion ;D

Ditto for NH....that's assuming you are eligible to buy a firearm at all....basically no felonies, drug addiction etc etc...

; In Delaware, instant background check, no waiting period.

It's even easier if you have your CHL in Texas too!

Arizona... walk in, fill out paperwork, wait a few minutes while they make their phone call to the Department of Public Safety for your background check, pay your money and walk out.

If you have a CCW, no call to DPS for a background check required.

I purchased 6 semi-autos in a four month period... not one eyebrow was raised.

NC- No wait with permit

SC-I didn't wait

Ohio has to make a phone call. CCW does not help. It should!

+1 for TN

in Montana , the waiting period is the time it takes to write down your NCIS

transaction number from you CWP. And if you don't have a CWP, then it's the time it takes for the FFL to get a NCIS transaction number. Sure is nice to live in a state where EVERY able-bodied citizen is a member of the Montana State Militia (as stated in the state Constitution), and that open carry is legal.

Welcome from PA, no wait just a phone call. But maybe I should move to Montana, that sounds better.

In KY if you have a CCP, they write the number on the back of the Federal form-no phone call.

Without a CCP, they make the call and asssuming you pass you're out the door with your new toy.

That's a good idea. I wonder how many other states do that.

Same in Michigan... except you have to run down to the county office and pick up a purchase permit- $10 (I think it's just a money raising ploy because background checks are done when you buy anyway). That requirement is waved with a CPL; still have to have a "safety inspection" done... back door registration... Also no law banning open carry in MI, so technically it's an open carry state.

lets think about this for a second... how many people really buy a gun at a store today and go use it to commit a crime?  I've got to believe the numbers are statistically irrelevant.

Lets not even discuss making you wait when you already own firearms...

AS an Old (Florida) Gator who was born in PA (Pittsburgh), it sure is nice to be a citizen of the very gun friendly state of Montana.

In NC with a CC permit pay-n-go. No carry permit go to county sheriff get $5 purchase permit, then pay-n-go. John
