I bought it with my card Sunday. Tuesday I went back and said I want to return it. I showed my receipt. They pulled it out from the back (I obviously never took posession, I only touched it once) and did a return like you would return a t-shirt or anything else. $ credited back to my card. They...
Okay I keep hearing different interpretations. BUT.
Does anyone have any knowledge or experience with purchasing a firearm right after returning one, at different shops?
Seems I'm in my boat by myself. I will post final turnout if anyone is interested for future reference. (for what it's...
Thank you mdram and Blacksmith101
Those responses were very helpful and seem like good news for me. I think I'm in good shape, I was really only trying to get 1; I just hadn't realize I got screwed by Gander/MSP until after I already made my purchase and filled out papers.
I returned that...
I returned my Gander purchase - they hadn't even sent paperwork yet. However, unfortunately, they refused to tear up the papers or even write VOID; They will still send paperwork off to MSP.
I purchased a SW 380 Bodyguard from a local shop doing 8 day release. Hopefully I don't get denied...
Seems to me that there is nothing in there about making a return to one seller and then buying from another seller. Only an exchange at the same seller.

Define "purchase" - I paid for the thing but it's not in my posession. It won't be in my possession anytime soon if ever (I'm considering a return if...
I got a response from mid county also.
So now I'm considering purchasing one from a respectable shop that is doing 8th day release.
Problem is:

The person at the counter said as long as the gun is still in the store I can return it. I hope that's the case.
I will look in to this
Yeah, I had no idea that there were different options and policies. I thought all shops would be basically the same. doh
Thanks for your help everyone. I...
yeah, I know right. blah.
Just trying to figure out how to move forward from here. :confused:
I tried calling a local shop this morning and got no answer. I e-mailed Constitutional (not so local) and got auto response they're flooded and not doing transfers! Eeps.
At least the good gun...
My situation: Recently purchased my first handgun from Gander Mtn (facepalm). As I was finishing up I overheard an associate explaining to a potential buyer that the waiting time for background checks by MSP is around 5 months and if you don't have paperwork cleared and gun in hand prior to...
I'm in a similar boat as mddog :(
On Sunday I purchased (paid for) my first handgun from Gander Mtn (facepalm). Yesterday I completed the paperwork. As I was finishing up I overheard an associate explaining to a potential buyer that the waiting time for background checks by MSP is around 5...

Thanks for your responses. I'm only talking about a handgun - my first handgun purchase. The only other firearm I currently own is a .22 rifle.
I honestly don't care about being fingerprinted - invasive but oh well; the safety course will use up a day of my time, ugh but fine. What I...
Newbie here. So as the law/bill currently stands -
A person must have cleared paperwork/background check and pick up handgun PRIOR to Oct 1 to avoid HQL stuff?
As I had understood, a person had to "purchase" (my definition - pay for) by the Oct 1 deadline to avoid HQL hurdles. :confused...
