Anyone else waiting 11+ days for a background check?

[Flat45]

Submitted paperwork on August 2nd. My name is generic as big red bubblegum so I always get the end of the queue. Number was 26xx. However, I've had numbers this high before, never taken more than six days. Anybody in a similar boat? Thx for the input.

I checked our forum and didn't find any recent posts for delays.

Does the FFL do no response releases?

My last one a month or so ago was over a week at Calbelas.

Last week my wait time was zero.

I'm at 15 days but that might just be because the store hasn't called me.

Use a dealer that has 3-day release.

If my name was Xmark1 I bet I could pull that off as well.

Must be the 3 day release?

Legally an FFL can release a firearm to you after 3 days of no response, at their own discretion. Although many (perhaps most) do not, some do. Of those that do, they tend not to count the first (when it was submitted) or last day so in effect it's actually a 5-day release… but still better than a 10+ day wait.

I really appreciate all the info gentlemen. I'm confident in the answers given. I was thinking of taking the post down. However, there maybe some, future world, poor soul like me with a similar question. Thx again

My last one was just shy of 10 days. You know "instant".

 

[DangerDog]

I don't do those; so I don't have to wait on anything.

I guess the logic here is that on scale cosmic enough, 10 days is instant.

Thanks for for sharing your experience. I'll try that.

A little boy asks God how long a million years is to him.
God answers : a Second
Same little boy asks God how much is a million dollars to him
God answers: a penny
Little boy the asks can I have a penny?
God answers : in a second.
