Thanks Bentaz
Just-First permit is 28 days, then process time. All others are just "processing time" at the registry. Or if you meant "Why am I buying 8?" Well, that's because I have the cash, and I have bought the lot @ Once. That way I may not need another firearm, or I am able to trade one on another etc etc etc.Should be in the safe this week!
