He's glad to do basic firearm transfers for you.

Don't forget I will still be doing "Class III" transfers and I'm available if you want to purchase any firearms/lowers/etc. I'm just not doing out-of-state transfers of "normal" handguns/shotguns/rifles.

TRANSFER SERVICES ENDING IN JUNE!

I wanted to wait until after April 1st to announce this so that nobody thought it was an April Fool's joke :) I am about to embark on getting my graduate degree, and between that and my other full-time job, I will not be able to effectively handle taking in shipments and doing transfers for a period of time. Many of you are long-time customers, and (within reason) I am willing to support an occasional transfer or two, but it must be arranged in advance.

• I am STILL available for SOT ("Class III") purchases and transfers.
• I am STILL available for simple armoring work (sight installation, scope mounting, AR-15 custom builds, etc.)
• I am STILL able to provide special-order firearms for sale through my business
• I am STILL available if you have questions
• I might be carrying basic AR-15 (and possibly AR-10) components (including inexpensive, but high-quality, lowers) for purchase. This depends on demand more than anything else. This is your opportunity to say something.

I know this is a HUGE inconvenience for many of you, and I sincerely apologize, but I must look to the needs of my own family first.

The good news is that I am lining up an FFL that is relatively nearby that will do transfers even LESS than I charge. How awesome is that? Stay tuned for more details on that!

Lastly, I want to give a HUGE "Thank you" to this TXCHL community. Y'all have been the most awesome customers EVER and I would not have succeeded (for small values of "success" ) without your support!

FYI: I have updated my rates (bulk discounts now!), plus finally let people know I'm a "Class III" dealer (considering I've been one for almost two years, it's kind of long overdue )

I hate doing that, but I'm pretty much backed into a "no revenue" corner otherwise. Most of my distributors and direct sellers have told me that rifles and rifle parts are looking at a 12-24 month lead time now

What about Glock parts? I was considering getting an extended slide release for the G30. I'm also pontificating on getting a G21 because I like the G30 so much. Have they become scarce?

Good question, I can look around. Doesn't sound like something hard to find. ARs and AKs though -- better be ready to pay FAR over "top dollar". I was talking my Wilson Combat sales rep yesterday, he said their rifle orders are backlogged AT LEAST 18 months. That's mind boggling.

Class III Special Occupational Tax paid and noted! I can now offer all those fun toys not really associated with a CHL

Actually, found something on his site that I could use, so I got that instead.
Fast, smooth, friendly transaction today. Thanks David. Till next time. John.

Thanks, John! I always like to say that it's my customers that make my job awesome, and you're no exception!

FYI, I now keep a listing of firearms I have available here: http://oldcannon.com/category/firearms/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

You guys are awesome, thanks! Just doing what I can to make things easy for the CHL community!

He will definately be getting my business again.

Thanks! Considering you drove all the way from Temple, that's a HUGE compliment!

Glad you enjoyed shooting that Grendel as well. I hope to offer some of those in a few months!

No worries! I am working on getting my website set up soon, so it should make it easy to order direct from me if you're interested in going down that path.
