    So I purchased some handguns online (first for me) and they should all arrive early next week. I did my 77r and got a pin and app#

    Do I have to wait 7 days from the arrival at the FFL or from date of purchase online?


    Thanks in advance

    google is your friend, I am not.
    ok, two things, because the post is not clear:
    1- they should all arrive early next week ->, it is 7 days after the dealer submits the 77e. Dealer cannot submit it until they actually receive the guns. So its at least 7 days after the dealer receives the guns.
    2- gun(s)-> Unless you are a designated collector or have some other exception, you can only receive one handgun a month. There may be some exceptions like iof they were part of a collection, but odds are, the FFL will not release more than one gun at a time every 30 days.

    You will get an email when you can pick up the first gun. This is 7 days after the dealer submits their part of the 77e. When you can pick up others, if any, depends.

    Yes I am a designated collector. They actually appear to be received by this Friday (by end of day)

    So I can swing in late Friday or early Saturday fill form and sit on my hands for next 7 days from then

    you may already know this but make sure FFL is expecting it. Some FFLs will reject it and some will charge you more for the transfer if you did not tell them ahead of time.

    If your FFL is knowledgeable about online orders, it should be a very painless experience. I've bought most of my firearms online and the FFL I have used from Day 1 has been absolutely great and I've not experienced any problems at all.

    Enjoy your new acquisitions.
