Yet, none of the FFLs that we deal with will release our guns. :frown:

The list of those who are releasing is growing daily as they receive updated information about the process. It may be worth checking back with them o, if you post their name here I can tell you if they are now on the "yes" list.

Thanks!~

Cromwell has one of the bf's guns. I know as of Friday he was not releasing on the 8th day. Tackle Box has another of his. All Pawn has mine. We're making calls to all 3 today. All Pawn has been great and Cromwell is a hell of a guy. Cromwell could not order my gun and that's the only reason that I didn't go through him. Tackle Box is another story. We will not ever go through them for anything again. They are unorganized and not very pleasant to deal with. Not to mention that he's purchased 2 guns from them in the past year or so that have been damaged. Not sure if it is the company that they got them from or something that happened at their shop, but the whole process was a PITA.

We order and purchase our guns via GunBroker.com and then have them shipped to our FFL. GunBroker has great prices and it's worth looking into if you don't want to pay out the wazoo for local guns.

Being that we are in Maryland, the state which every young lawyer knows is the Land of Peasants being Sued by somebody, I will bet the first person the FFLs called about the 8 day release were their attorneys.
They probably differed in their opinions, but by the looks of it a majority told their clients that the only way to avoid any liability, is not to release anything until they received a written approval.

So do we..generally. But I have to give Bob (Bob's Sunoco) credit; he's sold me some at very competitive prices.

I checked there. Prices ranged from $360-450 for my gun. I got mine in VA for $428 total, including the transfer fees. Even if I had gotten it through Gun Broker, I'd still be on this obnoxious wait list. :ohwell:

True. :huggy:

When I was checking around for the gun I wanted, all the local places had it for 450+. I got mine for 300 and that included FFL fees. We saved an additional 300 buying my husband's on GunBroker. If the local guys had wanted to haggle, we could have made some deals, but they didn't want to haggle. Maybe it's because I'm a girl?

I'm a girl and I had no problem haggling a decent price on my gun. The guys at Big Dogs in King George were great They thought I was a hoot when I went in asking about a pink gun that I HAD to have and if they had any matching accessories.:lmao:

I can't wait to get my .357 now. When I thought it was going to be 90 days, it was ok. Now that it will be 8 it seems like sooooooooooooooooooooooo long.
