New Rifle Purchase Process - Stage 3 complete!!!!

I go to the letterbox this morning and remove the letters.

I'm flicking through the various letters while walking back to the house and notice the distinctive colouring of my firearms licence through the envelope's window.  And I think to myself "Firearms licence .. that isn't due for renewal until July."

THEN I REALISE IT'S THE PAPERWORK FOR MY NEW RIFLE ...

<<Julie does happy dance>>

Rip open envelope and there is the additional page (to add to my firearms licence) showing my new rifle and the co-licence for Shooting Buddy's !!!!!

Woo hooooooooooooooooooo

Now to go pick up guns ... not sure when I can get away ....

[Update:  That's a new record - less than a month since the paperwork went in (April 17th) to piece of paper in hand!!! Makes me want to go buy something else to see if it will be even quicker!]

Congrats!

It looks like my new rifle is going to be some weeks out as well due to lack of stock. Same story on the magazines. If those don't get shipped by July 1, they'll be illegal and I'll have to visit the Cabellas in Scotts Bluff to get them.

Congratulations. Sometimes things move more quickly than ever expected. I find it usually happens as soon as you start thinking it won't :-)

Thanks Guys! Billll hope you get those mags soon!

Julie said...

Thanks Jennifer, planning to!

Hope this isn't premature, but Bass Pro has suggested that my rifle might be available this week.

Finger's crossed for you Bill .. it's not far off July 1, so I do hope it arrives in the next couple of days!
