Adequate time for an FFl to complete a transfer?

[jqunac]

I live in a small town that doesn't have an LGS, woeful but true. I hate having to drive to a neighboring town to do a transfer so I picked a local FFL whom I have not met.

My firearm arrived Friday about 4:30 PM but never heard from the FFL. I'm trying to be patient so a waited til Saturday evening to call him. His wife answers and says he is running an errand and she'll give him my message. Sunday morning and I still haven't heard anything.

Should I just chill or should I start robo calling?

FFL transfer time

Normally they should call ASAP and get you over to do the transfer.
If he has a shop or works out of the house and has a regular job, will make a difference , due to his work . Has he contacted you? If not call Monday if possible to find out why not? Could be sick? Give im a chance to make it right. He could be a great find? Good Luck

I personally don't work on the weekends or after 5 at my home business. I'd wait until Monday. Just remember, he doesn't HAVE to do the transfer for you either.

It might be frustrating, but 48hrs isn't an unreasaonable amount of time to wait to complete a transfer, especially if you are including a weekend in that time, and if this is not a 7 day a week business. Unless you both knew the firearm would arrive at close of business on Friday and made arrangements in advance to complete the transfer on the weekend, I'd wait until Monday to call.

Glad I asked for opinions... being retired I forgot the importance of weekends to the working man. I'll wait til Monday to contact him.
