Sorry if this is a common question but I purchased a handgun from young guns 2 weeks ago, and I'm not sure if I was suppose to take my receipt to HPD then wait 14 days for my permit, or if i am supposed to wait 14 days after I purchase the handgun then grab the necessary documents at HPD to pick up my handgun at young guns?  I have a feeling I just wasted 2 weeks waiting for nothing, and I was supposed to start my 14 day waiting period after I go to HPD!  I usually buy rifles and young guns would fax HPD my firearm info before I get there but I never did purchase a handgun before and I'm a little lost.  Can somebody please clarify what the exact process is to register my handgun please?  Thank you in advance!

take the gun info to HPD, with your handgun affidavit
then the 14 day waiting period begins
then go back HPD pick up permit after the 14 days
go back YG pick up gun
go back HPD register gun
done, easy.  sort of.

Yeah Young Guns should have explained the process to you. They have always been very through about explaining the process every time I have bought something, even though they know me and know I have purchased before. Sounds like whomever sold you the pistol dropped the ball.

Thanks!!  I really appreciate the info.

no problem. 

Just remember when you do pick up the handgun, you have 48 hours to register. You would not want HPD to confiscate the handgun and then you have to go through another 2 week application period.
