    What made you choose the 6945 over other similar options? Hope it doesnt take that long, I was told by a manufactuer that the weight is only 8-12 weeks.[/QUOTE]

    I had been out of the gun world for about 15 years and and just decided to get back in it. I wanted a colt SBR and started researching.
    Honestly, I didn't know much about the others. I kept my search primarily to Colt, because that was about the limit of my experience.

    The wait is what it is. I originally ordered the gun in Dec of 2011. There was a mix up with the distributor and the order was resubmitted in April of 2012. The form 3 took forever and the gun finally arrived at my shop on the 7th of August. I picked up the papers yesterday from the CLEO and sent them to the ATF. The wait continues.

    The 8-12 weeks is most likely the Form 3 transfer.
    Form 1 and 4's are taking 6 months or longer..

    I'm hoping late Dec for my last Form 1...

    In 8 months... depending on the election... guns may be banned, and prayer rugs will be issued in their place.

    Hmmm, you think if I engrave "Salam Aleikum" on my dust cover they'll let me keep it?

    Paying that much and NOT having it until next year is gonna drive me crazy (esp since this is a work gun and I could use it)
