Is it possible to pick up a rifle at the same time as a Tranquilo? A background check and 4473 has to be done anyway, so maybe? It would be cool to save the shipping and transfer fees.
ETA: Pickup, even concurrent with valet, isn't an available option. So...the rifle could ship next week per the fine folks in Leander. So let's have a little fun: Post two numbers. Only post one set and do not edit your post! Posting more than one set of numbers or editing your post will disqualify you completely. First number: Guess the test target group size for the incoming rifle. Closest without going UNDER wins a standard black dillo, NIB. Second number: Guess the last 2 digits of the serial number. Closest wins a bottle of dillo dust. Ties will be decided by coin flips performed by me in secret. Chances of winning 6 in a row are slim! ETA2: If you're on my ignore list, you're out of luck since I can't see your post. Sue me. That only covers 2 usernames, so chances are good you're just fine. ETA3: Contest will close to entries at the UPS delivery time stamp of the rifle hitting the FFL. That way even the FFL can't cheat. ETA4: Contest ends 3:17CST 2/25/16. S/N ends in 53. Will update with target tomorrow. |

Interesting question, but they do state they don't have a store front.

Assuming the rifle would be ready to ship well ahead of the Tranquilo Form 4 approval - I think I would want to go ahead and take possession of it. You're talking about saving a few bucks in shipping/transfer fees on transaction that is north of $3k.
...and there's nothing like opening up a LaRue rifle box when you know what's inside is nicer than anything the transferring FFL has in their store. |

When it's your 3rd LaRue and your 2nd tOBR, the mystery is kind of gone. I'm not really interested in trying to impress the gun store crowd anyway.
Looking at nfatracker.Com I think they should both be available within a week of each other. It would be kind of fun to pick it up as a package. |

Put the question in the comments when I ordered my tranquillo, also attempted to ask over phone. So far they have not wanted to valet rifles.
