So, I have heard from a few different people that effective August 1st, people with CHL's will be able to buy guns quicker or something. How exactly does this work?

You will fill out the 4473 but it will not be call in to NICS. So a few minutes less wait...

Last two guns I bought were sealed and dealed in under 10 minutes.

So were looking at under 5 min. now? Sweet

So it's like the insurance companies that say they are faster than Geico; 7 1/2 minutes instead of 15 minutes.

SWEET! not that my transfers take long, but yea, it'll make picking up a gun super quick.

It will be nice for holiday rushes when Nics is backed up.

I want that speed! LOL, my gun budget is spent until 2015 or so, but it is the principal.

Have the Feds approved this yet?

JBP55 · Jul 30, 2014

Several states have been doing this for years.

Pops 1 · Jul 30, 2014

Texas has been doing it for 7 years are more.

What do you mean? It's a State Law.

Bingo - South Carolina is one of them.
Still have to fill out the forms, but after everything's signed, you're done.

I wonder how many gun stores actually do know about this? My last purchase 3 weeks ago, I got the "deer in the headlights" look when I mentioned this. Apparently they were un-aware of such a thing.

Any retail firearms dealer that is unaware of a law so intrinsically related to their business core should be closed if they don't know this!

Robbie · Jul 30, 2014

We have not heard anything about this, gotta love the ATF???

Good question. I saw that there is a provisio in the bill that it is effective "provided that the appropriate waiver has been granted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives." Doesn't matter what the state does, it's the federal regulations that count.

This does in fact go into effect on August 1 here in Louisiana. Show your CCWP and you fill out your 4473 but no call is made.

InterstateGuns · Jul 30, 2014

Starting 8/1/14 anyone possessing a STATE issued CHP can present it to the FFL and they will not have to call in the 4473. Instead of filling out box #21 a-f you fill out #23. You still must fulfill the requirements of 20a as well.

Some parish Sheriffs give out CHP for their parish. These DO NOT fulfill the ATF requirement.
