Thanks again!
By telephone. Under ordinary circumstances, less than five minutes. It often takes longer for them to get connected than it does to complete the check.
Once you get you CHL you can even bypass the NICS check. You still have to fill out the paperwork but the call is not necessay.

Re: First Purchase

I would go to some place like Academy; that's where I bought my last two. They seem to have some of the better prices around. There you can also handle them and get a feel for what you like best. Once you have narrowed it down to what you like you can always go online and see if you can get a better deal.

Guns shows used to be a good place to go but I'm not sure you get as good of deals as you used to with the demand for guns and ammo rising.
