So after many months and lots of cash, I can now call myself a proud gun owner with this beauty in my possession:

Not my pictures, but the sellers, why waste time and effort when someone did it for me? : )
So to get this masterpiece my journey started with attending a hunting course which has around 40 hrs to finish, took me 6 days of attendance and cost me 314 dollars, then the exam which was 37 dollars. After that I had to wait for my hunter license, before I could apply for a gun license however I first needed to own an approved gun locker / safe which goes for around 377 dollars (you actually need to send the police a recipe or picture of the safe with your licences search which you can just fake, but storing guns in safe is mandatory, and it has to exceed a weight of 150kg, if it doesn't you'll have to bolt it to the floor). Then finally I could actually apply for a gun license which costs 125 dollars, wait time depends on where you live but some places it can take up to half a year to get a reply from the police, I only had to wait 3 weeks.
Started in late July and finally done, also got a CZ 455 on the way. You can circumvent some of the hassle but you'll have to be an active member of a gun club for 6 months but then you're more limited to what you can buy, though for owning a pistol your only choice is to join a pistol club.
Total cost: 853 dollars (not counting gun) and around 3 months.
