Most of the "wait times" being mentioned here are not periods of time during which one is waiting for work to be completed, they are the backlogs smiths currently have. In other words, if one were to contact one of the top artisans, the smith would not be able to start on it for X number of years, during which time, the gunowner keeps the pistol. Actual build time once one's turn arrived is usually a matter of months. Three years is an excessive amount of time for a smith to be in possession of a firearm.
