Well, I purchased a FN 9mm from a local retailer Sat. IT WAS PACKED! Had to take a number for the poor overwhelmed staff and wait a while. What usually takes a couple of minutes took 25, due to the number of NICS checks being done. 
The mandatory 5 day wait is fine for me until I get my Fl. concealed permit but I saw every person, permit or not, getting a firearm.
Shotguns (the tactical kind), those evil black rifles
, were going too. Pistols, mostly hi-cap semi-autos, but a old man in a scooter patiently waited his turn and rolled out with a nice S&W .38 revolver. "I can't shuck those anymore." he said,... He also said a few rather grumpy things about Obamessiah and the election.
But it was crazy. Local news had a morning segment about the increase of gun sales, and actually revealed the "REAL" reason.
A DEM crackdown, with a BHO Pres!
Just my man on the street observation, get the FN9 Fri. 
5 day wait is NOT legal in FL!
Here is the law...
790.33 Field of regulation of firearms and ammunition preempted.--
(1) PREEMPTION.--Except as expressly provided by general law, the Legislature hereby declares that it is occupying the whole field of regulation of firearms and ammunition, including the purchase, sale, transfer, taxation, manufacture, ownership, possession, and transportation thereof, to the exclusion of all existing and future county, city, town, or municipal ordinances or regulations relating thereto. Any such existing ordinances are hereby declared null and void. This subsection shall not affect zoning ordinances which encompass firearms businesses along with other businesses. Zoning ordinances which are designed for the purpose of restricting or prohibiting the sale, purchase, transfer, or manufacture of firearms or ammunition as a method of regulating firearms or ammunition are in conflict with this subsection and are prohibited.
(2) LIMITED EXCEPTION; COUNTY WAITING-PERIOD ORDINANCES.--
(a)
Any county may have the option to adopt a waiting-period ordinance requiring a waiting period of up to, but not to exceed, 3 working days between the purchase and delivery of a handgun. For purposes of this subsection, "purchase" means payment of deposit, payment in full, or notification of intent to purchase. Adoption of a waiting-period ordinance, by any county, shall require a majority vote of the county commission on votes on waiting-period ordinances. This exception is limited solely to individual counties and is limited to the provisions and restrictions contained in this subsection.
