I'm saying try to buy a cheaper used gun from a FFL/Dealer/Pawnshop. That way they will do a background check right on the spot, if it goes through, now you know you can buy a gun online and have it transferred without worry.

Worse case scenario, your out of what ever the back ground check would cost, period.

Best case scenario, you have a cheap gun and you know your fire arm approved. And you can always resell the cheap gun later on.

If you paid shipping, gun price, and back ground check, you'd be out a lot of money no matter how you look at it.
