I just bought a ruger 10/22 from that awesome turners sale, but my 10 days hasn't even started yet because it's backordered.

Don't even get me started on this retarded 10 day bull****... It's not like I don't already have a glock, AR in 5.56, and a Mosin in the house right now or anything...

You know, that's a good point. The 10 day wait makes sense if you don't already have a gun (not really, but for argument sake), but if I wanted to hurt someone why would I go buy a new gun to do it? Maybe make me wait 10 days for my first handgun, but after that maybe just a day or two for the DROS and paperwork.

Heh, you should have seen me when I was in the market for a Ruger 10/22 Target Tactical. That damn gun was on backorder for 3 months. I had to wait about 2 months before I decided to just buy the VLEB model and just swap out the stock. That was the longest 10 day waiting period ever.

Down payment on a new S&W M&P15 at Turner's in July. Shipment for my rifle not in until next week Thurs. Then the DROS. It's been a long month.

Another 10 days for a Browning/FN 1922 started yesterday...

my thoughts exactly, if you already own a few why the full 10 days?

my Kel-tec gets out 8/31 !!!

So... tempted... to go... on... another... tirade about this...

I inadvertadly created a 3 page thread on the subject while I was waiting for my Mosin. It pretty much came down to general lawmaker ignorance, "feel good" regulations, and a straight up desire for some to infringe on our rights where the 10 day wait exists out of spite for not being able to ban firearms altogether.

In the end, the consensus was that the 10 day time period was an arbitrary number no different than 1 day or a 100 years, and that having to wait any longer than the 15 minutes or so it takes to do the background check is a direct assault on the Second Amendment.

Anyway... Turner's still hasn't called me, so I should probably just assume I won't get my 10/22 till sometime around January. I did go out and buy a box of 500 rounds of Remington and a crappy $20 scope during lunch... just makes waiting worse.

California should really think of the bunnies in this case, because if I don't get this .22 by the time I get my hunting license, I'm going to be making a mess out of rabbits with my AR instead.
