        I've never "ordered" a firearm. The only wait I've ever had is the wait while I try to find the one I've decided I want. That said it took me a 3-4 months when I decided to buy a SA Pro half rail, to find one at a reasonable price.

          I paid for a new Smith & Wesson Model 41 once, waited a year and a half, gave up, and used the store credit to buy a Browning SA-22, a Browning BL-22, and a CZ 455 — all in stock. I still feel like I came out ahead in the end.

            21 years and three days...until I turned 21 and could buy my first handgun, a Springfield 1911.

                Have you all beat.

                11 Years.

                Serbu BFG-50A (semi-auto) in .50BMG.

                Bought the receiver pre-AB50, and refused to register it. By the time Mark's production gun was ready, I had him ship it to my place in Arizona where it remains, but is one of the highlights of my weekend getaway place.

                If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

                    7 months for my DSA FAL receiver to come off of backorder and to my FFL; least it gave me time to stock up on 922r parts and magazines for the IMBEL kit it was going onto.

                    Think a friend of mine has me beat for the foreseeable future since he put a deposit down on one of those HMG StG-44's five years ago and is still waiting for that whole mess to clear up.

                      Not me personally but some dudes waited almost 2 years to get their CMP 1911. I’m about to get to 2 months soon.

                        I ordered a 1874 Sharps in March of 2021. It went on the production run in September of this year. Maybe by Spring of 2023, I hope

                          Bout a year and a half for my 1st DCM M1 Garand. Was worth the wait.
