    That or a Gen 5 G19 would be a solid choice.

    Question My first ever gun purchase has a road block...

    This is so weird.
    I got a call from the online store that they can't use the FFL I selected. That FFL offers the lowest transfer fee.

    It turns out that the FFL is moving to new address starting May 1st which is still almost three weeks but the problem is ATF site already has their new address while the FFL's address is still old.
    They haven't received the new license to send them and they don't know when they'll get it. I assume they'll get it soon since it's April already.

    Does anyone know how long it takes to get the updated license?
    I'm okay waiting few days.

    There are any number of gun shops within an hour of you, why are you buying online?

    I did go to many shops but lowest price is over $500 while online is $400 shipped.
    Even with transfer fee, it's more than $75 cheaper.

    After frequenting my local gun store/range for awhile, items became cheaper and range time became free.

    I've sent enough business to my LGS that I get an automatic discount on anything I buy and the ocassional free box of ammunition.

    Pay the extra $10-15 and use another FFL.
