Some FFLs running out of, or have run out of, HSC cards.

Who cares, they are obsolete in 8 days.

It matters to some people only coming aware now of SSE and coming up with fat last chances, being told no for lack of supply. I bet there are some people out there that will hit the stores this week to get an SSE purchase and be in for a surprise beyond their control. I was just at a store today and the whole thing of SSE was being explained to a guy, first timer, as he was planning to buy a SIG 938.

For those in the eastern SFV/Burbank/Glendale/Pasadena area the following stores report that they are out of HSC cards:

Guns Direct
Aegis Trading
Gun World
American Gun Works
Turner's Outdoorsman - Pasadena

All those stores are within several miles of each other and cover a wide area of being the ONLY gun stores in that proximity. I can only imagine that it's the same for other regions.

I know a guy who's HSC expires on 12/25 but his 30-days isn't up until 12/26. he's buying a new SSE gun on 12/26 along with a rifle. in order to start the DROS, he has to have a valid HSC so he gets to spend $25 for that. but in order to pick up the rifle in 10-days, he has to have a valid FSC, so he gets to spend another $25 for that as well.

Which is why the current HSC cards should have been allowed the capability to be 'endorsed' at no extra cost, to include the new FSC bullcrap long-gun guidelines. I've been around guns so long, of all types, to think my safety in handling one type of firearm does not automatically apply to others is asinine.
