Every compatriot knows that in America they trade weapons quite freely and, if desired, in some states you can almost buy a tank for your own needs! However, in reality, everything is not so simple. Conditions for the sale of guns can vary greatly from state to state, and not all regions of the United States have a liberal attitude towards the sale of firearms. However, there are also general rules. One of these is a 10-day delay on obtaining weapons immediately after purchase.
The United States of America is one of the most liberal countries in terms of the firearms trade. However, it would be a mistake to think that you can just come to the USA and buy whatever you want on the official market. In the country in general, and in each state in particular, there are fairly strict rules and their own bureaucracy, which a law-abiding citizen must comply with.
Firstly, before the sale of weapons, a citizen will be checked by a weapons store for cleanliness before the law. It is most often not possible to purchase weapons with a criminal record on the official US market. In any case, this applies to those who passed under serious criminal articles. Such verification is most often carried out through government databases right in the store. To do this, a person only needs to provide their driver's license - a universal personal document in the United States.

Secondly, the buyer of weapons will have to receive a special certificate before going to the weapons shop, which confirms that a citizen knows how to handle firearms, is aware of his rights, duties and responsibilities in this area. To receive the coveted card, you will have to pass a special exam.
Thirdly, after the purchase of weapons, a 10-day delay is made for issuing it to a citizen. The seller takes the money, gives the citizen documents, but leaves the weapon in the store, placing it in a special safe. This is done in order to prevent the emotional use of weapons. For example, cases when a citizen decided to arm himself and do something bad under the pressure of life circumstances: problems at work, in the family, with friends, etc.
