New member looking to buy

Hi Rob,
Welcome home and thanks for your service. You wont find a 350.00 Luger in CT., that is for sure. Bobs Gun Exchange in Darien CT has a few nice shooters in the 800.00 range. If you want to find one cheaper you will need your Curio and Relics collectors license. Then you can shop all over the country without having to transfer through a dealer.I am in Fairfield County, where are you?
Cheers,
Jason
Oh PS.....every WWII vet shot and killed an officer to get that vet bring back.
We have a saying "buy the gun not the story"

Hi Jason. I hear ya'! I bought the pistol from my brother in law who purchased it from an old woman in Middlebury CT. Her deceased husband brought it back. (well...actually deceased husband's are incapable of bringing back weapons, or anything for that matter. He was ALIVE when he brought it back & died later) (I'm being a wise guy...sorry) .She looked like an honest old woman who wouldn't make the story up, but......maybe her husband told her that tale when he got back home.

I live in Naugatuck. It would be nice to get one of those licenses to not have to go thru a FFL dealer. Are they hard to get?

For the other gentlemen, I'm not a Hospital Corpman and the Navy ships are fully manned so when we get activated in the reserves now we don't go on ships which is fine with me. I spent 3 years on an aircraft carrier and have been on many small ships as well. I've had my share of sea duty. Three of my Navy Reserve friends have recently been activated. After training one is headed to Afghanistan, the other (a girl) is going to Kuwait, and the other one doesn't know where he's going yet.

Hi Rob,
C+R is easy to get.Contact ATF, they will send you the forms.The Cheif Law Enforcement officer of your town reveiws the application, submit and in 2-3 weeks you will have a FFL

Wow! That's exactly what I'll do! Jason, what weapons will I be able to purchase with this? Only, old collector weapons, or any modern pistol or rifle?
