I'd actually buy more guns if they could be shipped right to my door. Not sure why they would have to add a mandatory waiting period though. That kind of ruins it for me.

Guns could be shipped directly to homes under major rule change

A new rule proposed by the Trump administration would allow the direct shipment of guns to buyer’s homes in what could be one of the biggest changes to gun regulations in recent history.

In theory the waiting period is to give the local cops (who have to be notified) time to object.

Seems redundant with a NICS check, and also designed mostly to allow a pseudo registry.

The cops here wouldn't object. In fact, they could fund their whole department if they partnered with Door Dash on last mile gun deliveries.

My cops would object.

Shit...I would just be happy if I could go to the store and take home a gun that minute without having to go back and forth downtown to the pistol permit office.

I remember when you could have a gun shipped to you door. How the mighty have fallen.

I was sure this was fake news but is apparently real.

Years ago you could order a full auto tommy gun, a case of dynamite, and morphine delivered COD to your door with no paperwork at all.

We have lost so much.

Used to in Orleans County.
Then the judge who believed in the 2A retired and the new guy doesn't want to bother filling out the pre-purchase coupons.

It has it's downsides. The impulse buys are getting expensive.

Guns, I'd rather it be ammo like it use to be.
I buy many, many times more cases of ammo than guns.

Yes. I have many guns. The Ammo is a huge issue.
