I just had to look it up. I was thinking that every purchase I've made in the last three years must have been illegal, since the waiting period was only 10 days! Which I really hate - I had found a very nice Colt Python a couple of yearsago, and could hardly wait to give it a test drive. The wait seemed endless.

Believe me...I am happy to be wrong.

I should have known better than to question someone who has purchased a handgun in California in recent years. The last handgun I purchased was a S&W Model 29 .44 Mag. and that was probably around 1990.

The last handgun I obtained was a gift. It's a nickel plated Colt Pocket Positive chambered in .32. I inherited it after it had sat in an attic for over 50 years. Even though it was made in 1903 it's still in pristine condition. I've never fired it.
