Re: Bought my first Can Yesterday
Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to everyone, took my 8 year old daughter camping this weekend. Poor snipe, LOL. I did not go with the trust. When I am going to purchase an expensive FA weapon I would probably do that. But since no problems with my CLEO signing I did not see the need and the tax stamp is almost half of the item. I already have an FFL on file with the BATF so privacy is not an issue. My wife or daughter would never go and use it without me. So I decided to save the money from creating a trust and use that towards the next one. I've already got an itch to go get a 9mm already. I understand what is meant about not spending the money to pay for one I never though I would either. Then I decided before someone gets stupid and makes the price of these stamps $5000.00 each or whatever I would buy the NFA items I want. And yes it burns me up to have to pay what I did pay but I thought I would get it over with now.

Bought my first Can Yesterday
I have been wanting one since I started walking or so it seems. I decide to do a 22lr since I have a pistol already threaded and my 8 year old daughter loves to shoot it. Called a local dealer and went by to check them out he had many to choose from and we shot them all so I could compare. I chose a SWR Warlock with the quick detach. It seemed the quietest and was his personal favorite as well. He helped me fill out all the paperwork and I sent it off today. Now I wait just like when I got my first CHL in 96. He said it is taking 2-4 months on average. Maybe since I already have an FFL a little quicker. He said another customer has an FFL and it is usually 2 months every time. I should have put this in the waiting room. The hardest part is the idea that I am out close to $700 right now with the $200 government tax stamp, fingerprints, photos and the purchase of the silencer and have nothing but receipts to show for it and it may be like that for 2-4 months or longer. lol
