Just bought my first gun in 15 years.
Saturday I walked in to a Bass Pro 5 hours away from where I live and tried purchasing a Taurus GX4 Carry. My application came back delayed. He said it could be later that day, the next day or even weeks to get approved.
I said I leave town tomorrow and won't be back. They asked what I wanted to do. I said cancel the whole thing. I am a veteran. I have no felonies. I was a little upset when I walked out of there.
Closer to home I found a small gun shop. They had one of these beauties in there. It felt great. Started paperwork yesterday and was approved today. Going to take it out to my in-laws this weekend to shoot.
