New guy from CT

I just applied for my pistol permit May 10th with my local PD. They told me an approval may take 8-10 wks! Can't wait to get an XDm 9mm 3.8! Our maybe a compact? Any suggestions as to where buy appreciated. I'm looking for a LOW price!

welcome from ct. look at cabellas but dont buy there- they are WAY overpriced. check your local gun stores and shop around if you're looking mainly at price.

Thanks. I've been researching like crazy. I wanted to do this 10 yrs ago! Hopefully my local authority won't drag their feet.

not sure where you're from but it took forever because my local pd dragged their feet and were impossible to get a hold of. good luck to you though.

ah ok. well at least you have a large police department, i was relying on one guy. there are a fair amount gun stores out your way though and you're not too far from hoffmans off the berlin tpke which has some rental guns and an on site range. check them out and shop around since you have some time before your permit comes in.
