Oregon Background checks deliberately stalled?

[The Heretic]

If measure 114 had to get voter approval then how can they enact a revised ammendment without voter approval?

Legislature

Has anyone else noticed that after you've been waiting for over 29+ days to be approved they require you fill out another background check which they then call in and supposedly takes about 4 hrs and 2days later I'm still waiting! I've had a concealed license for years and never had any issue purchasing in the past and recently.
Also, the 2nd background check has a couple different questions, one of which is very confusing and seems aimed at catching people unaware, read it carefully!

I had to wait 2 months from submitting until I got the go ahead from the FFL and didn't have to fill out another form.

That's your FFL fault. They shouldn't have to; there's a number they can call to get an extension.

A friend of mine bought a shooter at BiMart and it took 42 days for his background check to come back. Even though the 3 day transfer thing is perfectly legal if the BGC is delayed, a lot of stores like BiMart, Sportsmans Warehouse, Cabelas, etc., won't do it because of 'liability'. Last I heard, ,NW Armory and J&B gun store in Beaverton are doing the 3 day transfers.

Oregon RifleWorks is also doing 3 day FINALLY !!!

Are there still BGC's taking that long? I thought the queue was finally down to a level where same-day approval would be feasible even if you do end up in line.

 

[Beeble_B]

Did one today, ended up going into line at around 40 people. 1.5 hours later, all clear

 

[asiparks]

got another instant today at A Cut Above.......

Almost all of the backgrounds checks we entered today were approved today.

Yet another instant for me today, over heard there were 80 in the queue at the time, the other person buying was told it'll be 1.5 hours.

Sounds like traveling to Portland to buy a rifle and coming back with the rifle same day is becoming a reasonable probability?

110 miles each way, 220 miles total or $48 in diesel.
A second trip in 3 days adds another $48.
Add background and transfer fees and and 2 trips fuel that's about $160.00 in cost.
A single trip makes it a little better.

Then and again I could stop at the Slingshot Lounge at 55th and SE Foster and get a Heater Allen Pilsner on tap...It's one of the best...and there's a gun shop across the street. I am talking myself into this........

You think up and back with the rifle on the same day is a real probability?

Why go to portland and not a LGS?

 

[Barefootdog]

Private sale of a used gun.
I want to look it over.
The gun is in Portland.
So I go to Portland unless seller will meet me halfway.

Background checks deliberately stalled?

Rrrrright......
It makes for, "Reasonable and Common Sense".
Since the ultimate goal was always the eventual elimination of private firearms ownership.

Now, can we think up/make up.....MORE hurdles and hoops to jump through?

It seems to be quite feasible these days but may be wise to err on the earlier side of the day. If you don't get instantly approved, the wait may still end up being a couple of hours. I made 2 purchases in the last few of weeks. One was instant but the other had me in ~80th place in the queue and took about 3 hours to clear. If I had shown up an hour before the FFL's closing time, I would've had to come back the following day.

Anyone have updates on this? Has this had any impact in the last 24hrs?
