You did well. I find that if you are honest and you don't understand how a particular firearm functions, it is best to ask. Don't worry about seeming dumb. You have to get the experience sometime. The important thing is that you are safe even when it is unloaded. I tend to sight a gun up toward the upper portion of the wall. Sometimes there are head mounts of deer and stuff.
Ask the sales person to show you how to dissemble a gun. Some won't know. As questions about safe carry... cocked and locked, cartridge in the chamber etc.
I still have some questions about autos from time to time since I mostly shoot revolvers.
You can figure a maximum of 30 minutes for the 4473 (Fed Form) and NICs check. Some days are slower than others. In a gun shop, I tend to just complete the form, start the NICs check and then continue looking at stuff. Never really think about the time as I'm excited about the new gun.
