I've just become a Virginia resident (again) and really really want a GI-style 1911. Do I have to remain a resident for a certain period of time before I can make a purchase through a FFL?
You'd need a state-issued photo-ID (i.e. Driver's License) and something else with the same name and address on it, like your car registration or voter ID card or a utility bill.
Nothing in either link about needing to be a resident for a certain period of time (unless you're a non-U.S. Citizen, then you'd have to prove 90-days residency).
The Driver's License (or other photo ID) has to have been issued for at least 30 days to purchase firearms. So if you use a recently issued VA license you end up with a 30 day residency requirement.
