The waiting period before one can pick up the gun that was paid for is just another impediment to our rights as citizens. I'm sure if they thought they could get away with it, some states like NY, NJ, MD, HI and CA would have 30 day waits, or 90 days, or maybe 365 days. I fondly remember back in the 1980's, not exactly ancient history, when after a burglary of my home in Texas and the loss of the one gun that I owned, I walked into a sporting goods store, saw a beautiful nickel S&W Model 19 and bought it in cash on the spot. The store threw in a box of 50 357 Magnum rounds and I walked out minutes later with this great revolver. No paperwork (althought I think I had to show my driver's license to prove that I was over 18 or a state resident, or something), no waiting period, nothing. I was a U.S. citizen and by God had the right to buy myself a firearm.
