For me -
Packet - 1-2 business weeks
Certificate - 6-7 business weeks
The books and manuals showed up about two weeks later
Must haves - anything with a C&R certification.
Depends on your budget and taste. I like the Mosin Nagants, K31's, German Mausers, and Austro-Hungarian M95's. I'd love an M1, but it's out of my price range for now.
