Wait period for buying multiple firearms?

So was background check done and came back as pending or???

Oregon FFL's, may be national also, but in OR FFL's MUST hold the gun for 3 or 5 days (its early) on a pending. After that they can CHOOSE to release the gun if no reply, but most won't do so until they get an all clear.

 

I went to a store just before Christmas ,without time for the paper work,layed away a revolver,came back to pick it up and found another one to buy.
I left the store with both that day.
I have heard or read on here about stories like yours from Cabella's. I found a rifle there yesterday but with 17000 people at the counter,I wasn't that interested.

 

I've transferred well over that, I'd try to get a straight answer on what the hold up is. There's no processing- either your PENDING, DENIED, or APPROVED.

 

I think it's corporate BS from Cabella's and some other big chains.I think I read it on here that a box store wouldn't release a gun even though the wait period was up.Had to have that call back

 

CAll corporate and find out whats going on.

 

I still wanna know what happened when you were there. They run the paperwork while you're there- if you get a denial you also alot of times get a free ride out of the deal. That's why the buyer has to be there when ran. They don't just put a pile of 4473's in someone's box to process as they get to it.

 

When I bought my first hand gun in Oregon their was a two week wait period. I feel old.

 

You will find that most chains will not release a firearm without a "proceed" from NICS, even though it says that they may release the firearm if no resolution is reached within 3 business days. Chain stores err on the side of caution and play it safe, preffereing to wait until a resolution is reached. The form is valid for 30 days after the initial NICS call is placed. The store can call and get a status from NICS during business hours. Multiple Handgun purchase forms are required if you have purchased more than one handgun from an individual FFL within a 5 day period, but not neccesarily mean that you will get delayed and the same local laws will apply to all hangun purchases.

 

Well the FFL must fill out any 'multiple handgun purchase forms' cause I didn't fill anything out other than the regular papers.
And I didn't see him filling out any thing extra.

 

The FFL holder is responsible to fill the Multiple Hangun form out and send it in to the proper agencies.

 

Fisherman Marine also has the same 5 day policies FYI

 

I don't like the idea that 2weeks later "now you can pick up your guns."
And " Oh,bring your chl with you. "

How about I waited 2weeks here is my DL and payment.
I mean really. ....it's like saying you can't bye 2 guns with out a chl. ...

 

I would have had to really like those two guns to wait that long. I prefer buying at my smaller local gun store.

 

I got the sp2022 in the 40...I love it...I two would like a second one.
Now that You mentioned it. ...my first gun was a shoty and it took a week of "pending"

 

I feel for you coasties. Over here, I walk in and walk out with whatever I want to buy. Even at Cabela's I'm usually in and out in just short of an hour. Twice I've been in and out in less tha 1/2 hour.
Granted my CWL helps, but it's still Cabela's, and their stupid rules and hoops they have all the sales people jumping thru makes it miserable for all of us.

I've bought handguns over my 30 minute lunch break at my favorite LGS, and been back to work on time, and that was before I had my CWL here.
It's not going to get any easier either. Let's see what falls out when they get done with Holder in the next few weeks.

I've bought more than one gun from Cabelas here. Sometimes there's a short wait to get paperwork or gun picked up if they're busy- but usually in and out in 15-30 mins.
