Waiting periods suck….

I recently bought a S&W revolver from a pawn shop located inside the city limits of a local town. Somewhere in the back of my mind I probably knew that the city had a mandatory 3 day waiting period on handguns, but it didn’t register until they actually handed me the form. Keeping in mind I had already filled out the 4473 and passed the NICS, what else do they possibly want to know about me?

The city form had 6 or 7 questions, all similar to ones on the 4473 . Plus, I have purchased and owned several handguns before this transaction. Seems to me that the Mayor could take the money alloted to shuffling this paperwork and put another officer on the street actually fighting CRIME.

Enough ranting for now, it just doesn’t sit well when a local liberal mayor decides that I (the law abiding citizen) need watching when their city has much greater problems that need addressing.
