The more time goes by the more I realize my wallet is gonna hate this hobby.

My PAL was approved Friday (still waiting on it in the mail)

I called to get my license number and bought a handgun today

hours later I'm already thinking it's gonna take forever to get the ATT so I should get a 22 rifle in the meantime since there's no use in having an empty gun cabinet for 2+months.
