Back ground check

[coyoteman5]

Went into Cabela's today to get a new Ruger Mark for target pistol and of course they had to do the background check and they said it was going to be 3 to 5 days I was like number 1000 in the queue. I gave them my Concealed Handgun license along with my drivers license and filled out the paperwork of course I thought at this time it shouldn't take 3 to 5 days for a background check I was figuring on walking out the door with it today but apparently not I'm on the waiting list.
Has anybody experienced this recently like in the last week this doesn't seem like there's been anything big in the news that would cause a back up. Plus I went in early not too long after they opened

You drove 180 miles for a Glock 17 with a timney trigger and a holosun.... We're all allowed to make choices I suppose

I get the first two. Dog would have gone along with me though. He/She/It needs a break too.

NFA transfers aren't supposed to go through NICS if that's what your FFL is insinuating. I can't tell if that's a funny comparison or confusion on the FFL part. This obviously only applies to cans, not SBR or auto transfers.

You are correct sir They are separate my FFL is not insinuating that they would…It's a funny comparison as in years past the extremely long wait periods for Class 3

Did you say 15,000????

Did you say 15,000????

Yes as of yesterday

That's what happens when the clerks are only clicking through 100 each per day. You know, as an office worker you're more prone to back problems and arthritis, so you can't rush too much on things. It's better to take more coffee breaks.

Sigh ... Here's hoping I continue my trend of instants, then. There's a nice pistol I want to whisper sweet nothings to I'm hoping to do paperwork on this weekend
