    Legally or illegally? What kind of weapons. All handguns require a background check that takes at least several days. Most rifles same things but it varies a little state to state. Shotguns not as much but again varies state to state.
    I have never tried to purchase any illegally but I cant imagine its very hard like most anything black market.

    Lots of restrictions where you can and cant take them even with permits (over 90% of mass shootings are in gun free zones) and you cant transport between states without the proper permits or properly stored.

    Would buying the AR15 legally be a chore?

    Depends how long the atf wants to hold your purchase. Ive waited a week before and ive left with the rifle the same day. I wouldnt say a “chore” at all. Now, finding affordable ammo thats a different story

    Genuinely interested Cuz. How much are the costs? Is that just because of the weapon? TY.

    Quickly checked one site and there was nothing available. Is that because people are buying extra, or is it that they are just limiting the manufacturing of the ammunition?

    AG answered well. Supply in demand, more firearms than ever have been sold this year than ever according to a local news source. Shortages of workers , materials, the military stockpiling hell who knows.

    Hell, in my country you need to have a fully bureaucratic registration "CAC known by the acronym CAC, as it is one of the belongings of the acronym" Collector, Shooter and Hunter ", but in Brazil it is prohibited to hunt, so whoever has this registration should just use for sports shooting, it is very difficult for ordinary people to obtain it, which takes a long time for a citizen to achieve if he is lucky and pass all stages of psychological tests. This type of document is easier for police officers, a citizens can't even buy a 38 revolver legally in Brazil.A shit !
