Lived in Oregon for 12 years. It was great until the Libs took over. Now a lot of my friends there are moving to Idaho. I'm too old the start over again.

Does the new law apply to giving firearms to family members upon one's death?
OP
Dudley Brown is a "word that would get me banned" and is the reason the magazine capacity limit was successful. He only cares about himself and seems to be in the background now of RMGO.
The lawsuit has been filed, I'm not optimistic it will be successful. Again, moving not an option for me. Firearms passed to immediate family members are not subject.

I lived briefly in Illinois, which also has a waiting period. I'm not entirely sure this was Kosher, but the FFL used to get the serial number of ordered guns from the wholesaler/seller and we'd fill out the paper work before the gun ever got there. It turned the shipping time into "waiting period" time.
The younger generations are being conditioned for socialism a little at a time so that they don't revolt. The socialist tactics are to lie and get laws passed that are only "feel good" and make no logical sense. Gun laws are easy to pass because so many younger people have an unfounded fear of guns. The socialists have figured out that the way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time.
well, to be honest, it is a waiting period between purchase and you taking possession. I don't know the specific wording of that law, but if you paid for it, and it ships on the 1st, and you take possession on the 11th, how is that not a 10 day waiting period?
OP
So late Friday afternoon I went to my shop for a purchase. Filled out the form and the clock begins-the interesting thing is they said even though the approval/denial/delayed response would come back in short order they won't look at it until the 3 day (from the time of day it was submitted) period concludes. I probably can't get back to the store until next Saturday with my work schedule. Grrrr.

I grew up in Florida and they have had a 3-day "cooling off period" since before I got into guns.
I don't know about you, but I couldn't eat, sleep, or pay attention in class during those three interminable days until I could pick up my latest toy.

Exactly, makes sense to me. But not a lot of dealers would do it for some reason. Maybe they do now. It has the same effect of a delay between the decision/transaction to purchase and delivery. Since Illinois has a 72 hour waiting period the gun usually didn't get there until after the time period was up.

You're missing the point ... it has nothing to do with making sense.
The idea is to make it as hard as possible for the law abiding citizen to become armed .
It is much easier to control / enslave a nation of unarmed citizens ...
Armed men tend to fight for their freedom too vigorously and the left can't have that .

There are very few states any longer that don't have difficult gun laws. All caused by those evil who caused multiple gun death's. It is primarily only the law breakers that don't abide with laws in effect that do the deeds that cause this to happen. It is only those of us that do our best to follow the laws that get harmed and inconvenienced.
The last I checked Ohio is still gun friendly. No additional state laws regarding purchase and possession beyond Federal law. Carry has only improved since I left, is now permitless concealed carry.

"Cooling Off" period is waived in FL if you have a CCW.
The next tactic is to make it so "the computerized system" becomes mysteriously defective. Common phenomena in California.

FL has had waiting periods forever. A wonderful leftover of Jim Crow.
Don't confuse the left with any form of logic.

The 3 day wait law is an inconvenience. The new law making it easier to sue dealer/ manufacture of a firearm is effectively causing smaller dealers and ffl holders to not do business in CO.. This overrides federal law and hopefully will not stand.
It's not an inconvenience if you are a battered person, with an out of control husband or boyfriend, who is likely to disregard a court order and attack you. You might need a gun and need it now!
Yes, I agree with what you are saying. I was speaking of my own situation I suppose.

Waiting Period
The state police are now doing the BGC.
Got the OK on my last revolver, in two hours.
That, is some progress.

And so it begins...
A custom rifle was delivered to Liberty Firearms Institute today. They efficiently processed the delivery and contacted me. Drove there on a Friday afternoon, it wasn't bad, inspected my purchase with pleasure, and passed my 4473 check. Now I wait until Monday at 16:00. Then Moms Demand Action and the Governor say I can have my purchase because those 72 hours ensure I will not harm myself or anyone else with it. I really wish global warming would change Wyoming's winters with greater rapidity. No big stress here, but definitely annoyed by the stupidity of the situation.

For what it's worth, Wyoming's winters aren't nearly what they were 25 years ago. Sometimes they're just plumb balmy. Liberty Firearms is quite a place. Used to visit it often back when I lived in Laramie.

You call that a wait, Colorado?
Washington State says hold my beer. The WA folks will get 10 (ten) mandatory business days wait for all gun purchases January 1st.
Not that there are many types of guns possible to buy here. Imagine somebody waiting 2 weeks to cool off for a Sig FCU purchase. You know, so he/she/that may change 'their' mind if was buying that FCU to kill self. In WA more than 75% of gun deaths are suicides, way above the national average.
Such is living in the beautiful Socialist State of Washington.

I know, I know, I feel for those Americans in more annoying and restrictive situations. I am only beginning to know how good I had had it.

So, anticipation is overwhelming annoyance with positive energy. Planning on bringing a new shooter to the range tomorrow and picking up my purchase after creating a new shooter. One of us, one of us, one of us....

Well,
I did not take my old friend to the range yesterday, not quite enough time. However, we had had a great visit at our home and I showed him my modest collection. He had never touched or handled a handgun before. He is a very smart and capable person, so it was easy for him to appreciate the design and manufacturing genius embodied in firearms prroduced by S&W, Colt, Sig, CZ, Springfield (1792), Remington Rand, Underwood, Standard Products, etc. He asked the best questions and had a great time.
After he left, Honey, the dogs and I went to LFI to pick up my 72 hours "safe" purchase. The governor and Moms Demand Action were probably smart to make me wait. Cold and rainy tomorrow, so dark-retro and I will go to the range:
